Light micrograph of assorted diatoms
Light micrograph of assorted diatoms. The diatoms are a distinctive group of single-celled algae containing about 10, 000 species. They form an important part of the plankton at the base of the marine and freshwater food chains. The characteristic feature of diatoms is their intricately patterned, glass-like cell wall, or frustule. The frustule consists of 2 halves which fit together like the lid & bottom of a box. The frustule is often decorated with rows of tiny holes, known as striae, which are arranged either radially or on the 2 sides of a central axis. Magnification: x200 at 35mm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of assorted diatoms, a distinctive group of single-celled algae. With approximately 10,000 species, diatoms play a crucial role in both marine and freshwater ecosystems as they form an essential part of the plankton at the base of food chains. What sets diatoms apart is their remarkable cell wall, known as a frustule, which resembles delicate glass-like structures. The frustule consists of two halves that fit together seamlessly like the lid and bottom of a box. Adding to their allure, these tiny organisms often embellish their frustules with rows of minuscule holes called striae. These striae can be arranged either radially or on both sides of a central axis. In this light micrograph captured at 200x magnification (35mm size), we are granted an up-close view into the mesmerizing world of diatoms. Their intricate patterns and exquisite details are brought to life through this photograph from Science Photo Library. Through exploring nature's wonders such as these diatoms, we gain deeper insights into the complexity and diversity found within our natural world – reminding us once again how interconnected all living organisms truly are.
