Pterocystis sp.
Pterocystis sp.; optical cross-section showing the spiny elements surrounding the cell. Specimen located at the base of the tube of the rotifer Floscularia janus; because of the thick water layer (resulting from the thick tube), the resolution of the image is somewhat low. In this optical cross-section the scales look similar to the scales of Raphidiocystis tubifera. (2)
