Blepharisma（图 1A 和 1B）是纤毛虫原生动物的一个属，其中列出的 47 个物种中的大多数都含有一种名为 blepharismin 的粉红色素，使它们对玻璃透射的可见光和近紫外线 (UV) 辐射敏感。最初，这种色素被 Arcichovskij (1905) 称为动物园红紫素，他首先确定了它的吸收光谱。该名称改为 blepharismin，以符合金丝桃素类色素的术语，使用属名作为命名的基础：金丝桃素来自 Hypericum，stentorin 来自 Stentor，fabrein 来自 Fabrea，blepharismin 来自 Blepharisma（Giese，1973）。
Blepharisma (Figs. 1A and 1B) is a genus of ciliate protozoans in which most of the 47 listed species contain a pink pigment named blepharismin that renders them sensitive to glass-transmitted visible and nearultraviolet (UV) radiation. Initially, the pigment was called zoopurpurin by Arcichovskij (1905), who first determined its absorption spectrum. The name was changed to blepharismin to conform to the terminology of hypericin-like pigments, using the genus name as the basis of nomenclature: hypericin from Hypericum, stentorin from Stentor, fabrein from Fabrea, and blepharismin from Blepharisma (Giese, 1973).
