See samples of ciliates, protozoans that move with cilia ... Ciliophora - protozoans that move with cilia ... These protozoans are called Ciliates and have hundreds of tiny cilia which beat in unison to propel them through the water. Often cilia are fused together in rows or tufts (called cirri) and are used for special...

The phylum Ciliophora contains about 8,000 species of ciliates. Ciliates move by coordinated strokes of hundreds of cilia projecting through tiny holes in a semirigid pellicle. They discharge long, barbed trichocysts for defense and for capturing prey;

It is true that the basis of the classification is movement. The Flagellates move with whiplike structures called flagella. Ciliates move with smaller projections called cilia. Both structures are microtubules made up of proteins.

These ciliates move by means of numerous small cilia. They are complex little critters, with lots of organelles and specialized structures. Many of them, like Paramecium, even have little toxic threads or darts that they can discharge to defend themselves.

Move by the rhythmic beating of their cilia. ... All of this rightly suggests that although they are unicellular, there is nothing rudimentary about the ciliates. Their single cell is far more elaborate in its organization than any cell out of which multicellular organisms are made.

Some ciliates move on leg-like cirri (many cilia bonded together)(eg. Euplotes sp.), others have rows of tightly packed cilia that function together as locomotor membranes (for example, Stentor sp.)
