采用Protargol银浸渍法，比较了切萨皮克湾3种尤tintinus属植物形态与E. angustatus、E. pectinis和E. tenuis相似的基础设施特征。这些物种的运动组具有许多共同的特征，包括：1)具有相似长度和运动间距的左右域；2) 2个，很少有3个，由单动力学组成的长背动力学；3)腹侧运动；4)缺乏真正的后运动。尽管如此，在不同的物种中，辅生成分的具体组织有很大的不同。例如，在所有三个物种中，腹侧运动的组织和左野边界的几个运动是不同的。此外，鳗鲡的背侧活动在体位上也不同于鳗鲡和鳗鲡。在口腔基础设施方面也有一些差异，如在大肠杆菌和大肠杆菌中，多动体的排列与鳗的不同。研究结果表明，Eutintinnus spp.基础结构的变异量远远大于以往发现的tintintinines同属种，支持了E. angustatus、E. pectinis和E. tenuis在属或亚属水平上的分离。
The infraciliatures of three Chesapeake Bay species of Eutintinnus conforming in lorica morphology to E. angustatus, E. pectinis, and E. tenuis were compared following Protargol silver impregnation. The kinetome of these species had a number of shared attributes including: 1) a right and left field that were of similar length and kinetal spacing; 2) two, rarely three, long dorsal kineties composed of monokinetids; 3) a ventral kinety; and 4) the absence of a true posterior kinety. Nonetheless, the specific organization of infraciliary components varied considerably among species. For example, the organization of the ventral kinety and several kineties along the border of the left field was different in all three species. In addition, the dorsal kineties of E. angustatus differed positionally from those of E. pectinis and E. tenuis. Some divergence in oral infraciliature was also noted, with the arrangement of infundibular oral polykinetids in E. pectinis and E. tenuis being distinct from that of E. angustatus. The amount of variation in the infraciliature of Eutintinnus spp. was much greater than previously noted for congeneric species of tintinnines and supports the separation E. angustatus, E. pectinis, and E. tenuis at the generic or subgeneric level.
