A small Arcella

Post by micro_pix »

I found this small Arcella case in a sample from a temporary flooded area in woodland.

It is 55µm in diameter and the central aperture is 15µm. I had a look at http://www.arcella.nl/ and it looks like it might be Arcella hemisphaerica.

Olympus 100X oil objective and a stack of around 40 photos.
