Our study was done to determine if cave crickets (Ceuthophilus gracilipes gracilipes) are able to transport dictyostelid cellular slime molds into and within caves. Large cave crickets were captured from Pigeon Roost Cave in northwestern Arkansas. Crickets were individually washed to remove dictyostelid spores, and fecal pellets collected aseptically from the washed crickets. Five species of dictyostelids, assigned to two genera (Dictyostelium and Polysphondylium), were recovered from the surface ...

SYNOPSIS. Present methods for extracting cellular slime molds from soil samples are shown to be biased in favor of spores and microcysts. To alleviate this problem, a modified method is proposed together with a method for partitioning active (amebae) and inactive forms (spores and microcysts).
