Chilodonella uncinata
''Chilodonella uncinata'' is a single-celled organism of the Ciliate class of Protists. As a ciliate, ''C. uncinata'' has cilia covering its body and a dual nuclear structure, the micronucleus and macronucleus. Unlike some other ciliates, ''C. uncinata'' contains millions of minichromosomes (somatic chromosomes) in its macronucleus while its micronucleus is estimated to contain 3 chromosomes. ''Childonella uncinata'' is the causative agent of Chilodonelloza, a disease that affects the gills and skin of fresh water fish, and may act as a facilitative parasite of mosquito larva.
==Habitat==
''Chilodonella uncinata'' has a cosmopolitan distribution. It is suspected to act as a facultative endoparasite of the larvae of the ''Culex'', ''Aedes'', and ''Anopheles'' mosquito larva. It lives in fresh water ponds, lakes, creeks, and bayous where it feeds on bacteria and other microbes.
Microscopic examination of cytological samples showed that mosquito larva containing subcutaneous encysted ''C. uncinata'' had a 25-100% mortality in the mosquito larva, but no viability examinations were conducted.
