Rhipidodendron (rip-ee-doe-dend-ron, is a colonial spongomonad flagellate, in which the cells are located at the end of a branching (aborescent) colony. The matrix of the colony is formed from adhering small globules of mucilage. The branches are flat, with several channels in each blade. One cell is located at the end of each channel (many of the cells were dislodged from this preparation). Phase contrast.
