Josh's microlife - German & Danish names

German often uses vernacular names where English prefers Greek or Latin, and they still appear in some guides to protozoa and other microscopic life. Some of these are the same as names used by earlier authors like Ehrenberg, while many others have been introduced since.

This table compares names from the following sources. Müller writes in Latin but also gives some names in Danish, here marked “Dan.” The others are all in German and usually apply to the species, but those marked “sp.” are given for the genus as then understood.

M – “Zoologiae Danicae prodromus” (1776) by Müller
S – “Fauna Boica, 2te Abt.” (1803) by Schrank
E – “Die Infusionsthierchen als vollkommene Organismen” (1838) by Ehrenberg
B – “Brehms Tierleben, 4te Auf.” (1918) ed. zur Strassen
L – “Das Leben im Wassertropfen, 9te Auf.” (2002) by Streble & Krauter

I’ve tried to list currently accepted species named in both older and modern sources. These are generally matched by taxonomic equivalence, since in cases like amoebae it is not generally possible to identify them exactly. For many older descriptions even this is hard to ascertain, and so there are some omissions.

Cyanobacteria, Endobacteria, Proteobacteria, Spirochaetae; Chlorophyta; Cryptista, Cercozoa, Ciliophora, Miozoa, Bigyra, Ochrophyta; Euglenozoa, Metamonada, Amoebozoa, Choanozoa; Gnathifera, Gastrotricha

As always classification is not constant, and in addition authorities for some species are variously reported (especially for Ehrenberg, detailed in this note) so some of these may be mislabeled. If you have any corrections, improved translations, or additional sources for names please let me know.
