hyphae
Description:
Infecting and associated with large filamentous blue green algae. Hyphae penetrate through the bacterial cells, destroying them. The hyphae are occasionally swollen and seem to give rise to packets of flagellated cells. These become active within an invisible enclosure, but as they become more active they break out and swim away. Hyphae visible here.
