Swimming pleasantly

Species name: Chlamydomonas or Chloromonas

AL-Museum AL-Museum

In the sediment of Hirose river, various microbes such as diatoms, flagellates, and ciliates are swimming in their own characteristic styles. In particular, a round green organism seems to enjoy spinning until it is caught by a particle and stops moving. It is not clear whether the organism is a flagellate or not.
