EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the intricate beauty of sessile rotifers. In this light micrograph, five Floscularia ringens rotifers are seen attached to vegetation, displaying their unique characteristics. Each rotifer is encased in a remarkable sheath constructed from faecal pellets, which adds a touch of brown to the image. Zooming in closer, one can observe the fascinating yellow ciliated corona extending outwards from each rotifer. These delicate hair-like structures play a crucial role as filter feeders for these aquatic invertebrates. As they extend their coronas into the surrounding water, they capture microscopic subjects such as algae and other organic matter necessary for sustenance. The magnified image allows us to appreciate the complexity and diversity present within our natural world. It highlights the extraordinary adaptations that enable these sessile creatures to thrive in their environment. The presence of hornwort and Chara sp. , both types of algae commonly found in freshwater habitats, further emphasizes the interconnectedness between different organisms within ecosystems. This photograph not only serves as an artistic representation but also provides valuable insights into zoology and zoological studies. By showcasing these microscopic wonders through light microscopy techniques, it encourages us to explore and understand more about our planet's diverse fauna.
