(B) A pyrenoid with starch sheath (asterisk) is positioned in the epitheca, while the large ellipsoid nucleus (N) is positioned in the central part of cell. The chloroplast lobe of a single chloroplast is positioned near the surface of a cell (arrow). (C) A large nucleus (N) and a small red accumulation body (arrowhead). Scale bars represent: A–C, 5 μm.
