Green alga, light micrograph
Differential interference contrast (DIC) light micrograph of a Micrasterias sp. desmid green algae. Desmids are a common group of freshwater single-celled algae that have intricate cell walls. Micrasterias are highly adapted to nutrient-poor, acidic water. light micrograph of a Micrasterias sp. desmid green algae.
