Description

Living Licmophora juergensii on red alga (Rhodophyta), together with the diatom Cocconeis and filamentous cyanobacterial colonies. Licmophora cells can move to locate a place with suitable light exposure. They then produce a mucilaginous stalk for fixation on the substratum. This multi-layer image captured using differential interference contrast. The sample was collected from Bodden, the brackish waters lying between the isles of Hiddensee and Rugia (German Baltic Sea).
