A strain of non-encysting free-living amoeba (LOS7N) isolated from the gills of Salmo salar L. was characterised morphologically and by the sequence of SSU rRNA gene. High level of sequence similarity (99.58%) with the strain F-13 (ATCC 30942) denominated as Saccamoeba limax Page, 1974 was at variance with results of comparative untrastructural study. Strain LOS7N differed from the previous and thus far only ultrastructural description of S. limax (Page 1985) in having regularly arranged, straight tubular non-branching cristae of mitochondria.
