Synura sphagnicola can be preferentially found in sphagnum ponds. Typical are the reddish oil droplets they bear in plasma. Sample from sphagnum pond Dosenmoor near Neumuenster (Schleswig-Holstein, Germany). This image was taken using Zeiss Universal with Olympus C7070 CCD camera.

This image was made from samples taken during a scientific cruise in the Pacific. Water was filtered to concentrate the organisms that were present, then dried onto a thin sheet of plastic and then shadowed with a fine layer of metal to provide contrast. The preparation was then observed with an electron-microscope. This technique has been used to document the diversity of marine microbes, especially, protists in the oceans.

Chrysophyte. This cell was not identified to genus. It contains a plastid with chlorophylls a and c, a contractile vacuole is evident at the top of the cell, and the cell is surrounded in an organic wall. although these cells were common in some locations, no motile forms corresponding to these cells were seen. Differential interference contrast. Material from Nymph Creek and Nymph Lake, thermal sites within Yellowstone National Park, photograph by Kathy Sheehan and David Patterson.

Chromulina (crumb-you-line-a) nebulosa, a small chrysophyte (stramenopile) with a single emergent flagellum, and with a golden plastid. Phase contrast microscopy.

Chromulina (crumb-you-line-a) nebulosa, a small chrysophyte (stramenopiles) with a single emergent flagellum. A second short flagellum is visible because cell division is beginning to occur (note the two chloroplasts) and a second flagellum has formed. -Phase contrast microscopy.

Dinobryon (dine-owe-bry-on) is a loricate chrysophyte (stramenopile) flagellate. This image shows a single lorica. Phase contrast.

Dinobryon (dine-owe-bry-on) is a loricate chrysophyte (stramenopile) flagellate. Cells have one long and one short flagellum, and there is an eye-spot at the front end of the plastid. Differential interference contrast.

Dinobryon (dine-owe-bry-on) is a loricate chrysophyte (stramenopile) flagellate. Cells have one long and one short flagellum, and there is an eye-spot at the front end of the plastid. Cells can encyst within the lorica, and form a pored cyst called a stomatocyst, one is visible here. Phase contrast.

Dinobryon (dine-oh-bry-on) a mixotrophic stramenopile (chrysophyte) with one long flagellum and one short flagellum. When feeding heterotrophically, the beating of the long flagellum draws food towards the cell where it may be ingested. The cell also has brownish chloroplasts. It forms a flimsy tubular lorica. Phase contrast microscopy.

Dinobryon (die-know-bry-on) sertularia, a loricate chrysophyte (stramenochrome) alga, the vase-shaped lorica is organic, most species are usually found with the loricae attached to each other to form arborescent colonies. With two flagella, one longer one drawing water towards the cell and a shorter one. With golden plastid. Phase contrast microscopy.

Dinobryon sertularia.
-
Colonial chrysophyte flagellate, Dinobryon sertularia (EHRENBERG,1834) . Cells in vase shaped loricae. During division, daughter cells in this species attach to the inner surface of the mother cell lorica, giving rise to typical branching colonies. Loricae are composed of cellulosic microfibrils. Cells with two unequal flagella. Two large chloroplasts. Prominent stigma. Mixotrophic because the cells can phagocytose bacteria as well as carry out photosynthesis. From freshwater pond near Boise, Idaho. Oblique illumination.
