A comparative ultrastructural study on the nanoscale extrusomes of tintinnids (Alveolata, Ciliophora, Spirotricha) and their phylogenetic significance

•Detailed comparison of nanoscale extrusomes (capsules) in tintinnid ciliates.•Classification of capsule types based on morphometric data.•Capsule types help to resolve phylogenetic relationships of tintinnids.•First ultrastructural clues for extrusive character of the capsules. The capsules, putati...
