Zusammenfassung:An easy and gentle method for collecting planktonic protozoa is described: a 1-liter polyethylene bag attached to a stainless steel, spring-hinged sampling device is operated from a standard heavy-duty fishing rod and reel. The sampler has been used successfully at depths from 1 to 300 m in ocean and in coastal waters. Acantharia and Foraminifera collected by this technique appear in excellent physical condition.
