ciliophora
Ciliophora is a large and diverse phylum of single-celled organisms, mostly free-living, but many are parasitic. The members of this phylum, commonly known as ciliates, are characterized by the presence of hair-like organelles called cilia, which are identical in structure to eukaryotic flagella, but typically shorter and present in much larger numbers with a different undulating pattern than flagella. They are involved in cell movement, feeding, and sensation.
