Strobilidium facing each other

Species name: Strombidium or Strombidium

AL-Museum AL-Museum

Two Strobilidium are facing each other. The whirlpool between them is so strong that small flagellates around these bodies cannot swim freely. The movement of diatoms is not so strongly affected, but a large colony of flagellates, Synula, is forced to stop for an instant.
