Dinoflagellate plankton, SEM
Dinoflagellate plankton. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of the calcareous (calcium-based) test (shell) of a dinoflagellate Calciodinellum sp.. Dinoflagellates are unicellular (single-celled) protozoans, many of which are found in marine plankton. Magnification: x800 when printed 10 centimetres wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of dinoflagellate plankton, captured through a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The image reveals the calcareous test or shell of a specific species known as Calciodinellum sp., which is composed primarily of calcium.
Dinoflagellates are single-celled protozoans that can be found abundantly in marine plankton. Their presence plays a crucial role in the delicate balance of our oceans' ecosystems. Magnified at 800 times its original size, this photograph allows us to appreciate the mesmerizing details and surface structure of these microscopic organisms.
The false coloring applied to this SEM image enhances our understanding and appreciation for the complex nature of these creatures. By highlighting their unique features, we gain insight into their biology and zoological characteristics.
It's important to note that some dinoflagellates possess toxic properties, making them potentially harmful to other marine life forms and even humans. However, this particular image does not depict any toxic elements explicitly.
Through this stunning visual representation, we are reminded once again of the vast diversity present within our natural world. This photograph serves as a testament to both the scientific advancements made possible by technologies like SEM and the inherent beauty found within even the tiniest organisms.
Science Photo Library has expertly captured this moment in time, allowing us all to marvel at nature's wonders from an entirely new perspective.
