Canvas Prints from Science Photo Library
LM of Vorticella ciliates on a green alga
Light micrograph of a group of Vorticella (small tethered balloons) adhering to the freshwater green alga Hydrodictyon (large green cells). Vorticella are sessile, ciliate protozoans of the order Peritricha. Each one has a head or zooid and a retractable stalk which anchors it to the alga. The flattened top of the head bears the mouth and a complicated wreath of hair-like cilia. The beating of the cilia creates tiny vortices in the water which wash bacteria into the organisms mouth. Magnification: x100 at 35mm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of nature's smallest organisms. In this light micrograph, we are presented with a mesmerizing scene where a group of Vorticella ciliates have attached themselves to the vibrant green alga Hydrodictyon. Vorticella, belonging to the order Peritricha, are sessile protozoans that resemble tiny tethered balloons. Each individual consists of a zooid or head and a retractable stalk that firmly anchors it to the alga. The flattened top of their heads bears an astonishing sight - a mouth surrounded by an elaborate wreath of hair-like cilia. What makes these creatures truly fascinating is their feeding mechanism. As the cilia rhythmically beat, they create miniature vortices in the surrounding water. These vortices serve as invisible traps for bacteria, which are then swept into Vorticella's mouth for nourishment. At a magnification level of x100 and captured at 35mm size, this image allows us to appreciate the delicate details and complexity present within even the tiniest corners of our natural world. It serves as a reminder that there is so much more happening beneath our notice, unveiling hidden wonders waiting to be explored. This stunning photograph from Science Photo Library offers us an extraordinary glimpse into the realm of these remarkable invertebrates – showcasing both their unique biology and their undeniable aesthetic appeal.
