Long ago, I remember seeing Vorticella under the microscope in High School. The top is vase-shaped, and has little cilia beating "food" into it. It ain't much of a critter, so I'm very impressed that a Vorticella look-alike can be coaxed from Triassic evidence.

Being able to resurrect one of these paleogerms would be even more impressive — if it doesn’t turn out to be a factor of some terrible disease we have no modern means of dealing with.
