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, a group of single-celled protozoans found in marine plankton. The image, captured using a scanning electron microscope (SEM), reveals the stunning surface structure of the calcareous test or shell of a specific species called Calciodinellum sp. The false-colored SEM image allows us to appreciate the delicate details and vibrant hues present in this microscopic organism. The calcium-based test gives it strength and protection while also adding to its aesthetic appeal. Magnified at 800 times its actual size, this print measures 10 centimeters wide when printed. Dinoflagellates are not only visually striking but also play crucial roles in marine ecosystems. Some species are capable of photosynthesis, contributing significantly to primary production and serving as an important food source for other organisms in the food chain. However, certain dinoflagellates can produce toxins that pose risks to both marine life and human health. Through this remarkable photograph, we gain insight into the fascinating world of these unicellular creatures that inhabit our oceans. It serves as a reminder of nature's incredible diversity and complexity while highlighting the importance of studying microorganisms for understanding our planet's ecology. This print is an excellent addition for anyone interested in biology, zoology, or simply appreciating the wonders hidden within our seas.
