This SEM image shows the two distinct particle types that make up the foram's agglutinated wall. The outer surface is made of fine, black or brown particles, and is underlain by a much thicker layer of sponge spicules and small quartz particles. Image courtesy of Andrew J. Gooday, Southampton Oceanography Centre. This image first appeared in J. Foram. Res 22:129-146 (1992) and is used with permission.

The white surface of this 6-cm-long foraminiferan is partially hidden by sediment trapped in mucus. The mucus was probably secreted by the polychaete worm Nicolea, which has been found on the test surface and is only about 20% as long as the foram is. Image courtesy of Andrew J. Gooday, Southampton Oceanography Centre. This image first appeared in J. Foram. Res 22:129-146 (1992) and is used with permission.

Specimens were isolated from surface sediments samples collected in Kongsfjorden, Isfjorden and Adventfjorden during the cruise of r/v « Oceania » between 22 July and 2 August 2004. The sediment samples were sieved at 500 um and 125 um sized meshes, and living specimens were picked under dissecting microscope on board. The specimens were photographed, measured and fixed for further DNA extraction. Source: http://www.iopan.gda.pl/projects/biodaff/EMBS-06.html
