From: Delineation of six species of the primitive algal genus Glaucocystis based on in situ ultrastructural characteristics

Figure 2

Insets show higher magnification image of the mother cell wall surface (boxed area) at the same magnification. Scale bar, 10 μm and 2 μm (insets). Note that each colony is enclosed by a mother cell wall, showing gauze fabric-like fibrils globally (a,b,d,e) or tightly arranged fibrils (c,f ). (a) G. geitleri E.G.Pringsh. ex Tos.Takah. sp. nov. strain SAG 229-1. (b) G. nostochinearum Itzigs. ex Rabenh. strain SAG 16.98. (c) G. incrassata (Lemmerm.) Tos.Takah. stat. nov. strain SAG 229-2. (d) G. oocystiformis Prescott strain 126. (e) G. miyajii Tos.Takah. sp. nov. strain Thu10. (f ) G. bhattacharyae Tos.Takah. sp. nov. strain 118.
