Acanthocystis turfacea (a-can-tho-sis-tis tur- fats-ee-a), a centrohelid heliozoon. Body coated with a layer of flattened siliceous scales and spine scales. Spine scales are of two lengths, and forked at their apices. This sample from moss. Nucleating site for axopodia just about evident in the cell to the right. Differential interference contrast.

Acanthocystis turfacea (a-can-tho-sis-tis tur- fats-ee-a), a centrohelid heliozoon. Body coated with a layer of flattened siliceous scales and spine scales. Spine scales are of two lengths, and forked at their apex. The cytoplasm of this species contains often symbiotic algae. The body of this specimen measures 88 microns in diameter. This specimen was collected in a pond near Konstanz, Germany. Differential interference contrast.

Portrait of Acanthocystis turfacea (Carter, 1863), a centroheliozoon with tangentially layered siliceous scales and two types of forked radial siliceous spines (one short, the other long) and radiating axopodia with extrusomes, all visible in this image. Chlorella endosymbionts are present. From standing fresh water near Boise, Idaho. Brightfield.
