This scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of an untreated water specimen extracted from a wild stream mainly used to control flooding during inclement weather, revealed the presence of unidentified organisms, which included bacteria, protozoa, and algae. Here we see what appeared to be examples of diatomic, bacterial, and protozoan species, which were but a few of the inhabitants of this fresh water stream. Note also the amorphic gelatinous biofilm within which were embedded bacteria, and amoebic microorganisms. For a colorized view of this image, see PHIL 11710.Created: 2009

This scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of an untreated water specimen extracted from a wild stream mainly used to control flooding during inclement weather, revealed the presence of unidentified organisms, which included bacteria, protozoa, and algae. Clearly visible in the center of this image, was a exquisitely-formed unidentified round vescicle-shaped microorganism, which may have been algal, or diatomic. Shaped like an ancient Grecian urn, the almost perfectly rounded smooth, flawless surface was made even more beautiful given its delicate structure.
