Finally, one I can identify. It's an Arcella. Nice stack. :)

I haven't done any stacking at all of microbe sized stuff, but I can see the soft rings in this. I probably would have missed them though if you hadn't mentioned it, not knowing what I'm looking at in a stack. :)

Linden,

Check out "Arcella" in the Leidy plates I referenced in an earlier message.

Thanks Charles, the plates were very useful. Its interesting to see such a hugh variety. I'm really impressed by the skill of the artist who did these plates.
