Choreotrich.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Choreotrich

The choreotrichs are a group of small marine ciliates. Their name reflects the impression that they appear to dance ('choreo' as in choreography). The group includes the tintinnids, which produce species-specific loricae (shells), and are important because these may be preserved as microfossils.
