Description:

The chroococcus cells are to the right, and the cells of a similar size but a brighter green colour to the left are cells of an unidentified chlorophycean green alga (a eukaryote). This image illustrates the blue-green colour from which the blue-green algae get their name. Differential interference contrast optics.
