Photographed with DIC on a Nikon Diaphot with a Canon EOS 5D mk2 mounted at the front SLR port. There is a X2.5 relay lens in the light path. All with a Nikon Plan DIC X40 0.75 objective and a LWD 0.52 condenser. Single unstacked images.
I am no expert on testate amoebae, so am using the identification suggested by the mounter. Please correct or amplify my suggestions if you know better!

First some Arcellas.



These are all noted by the original mounter as probably Arcella vulgaris.
Not sure what I'm seeing here. It looks as though coverslip pressure has cracked open some kind of cyst or resting body. But what is coming out? Baby Arcellas, or something else entirely. Perhaps someone can tell me?

The greatest variety of specimens seem to be species of Nebela, but I'm open to correction of course.

The suggested ID for this one is Nebela collaris.
The next one is suggested to be Nebela flabellulum.

More tomorrow.
