Light micrographs of Cyanomargarita colonies. (a) Hemispherical END1 colony from the Endrinales stream. (b) Section of the END1 colony showing zonation. (c) Radial arrangement of filaments in the ARA4 colony from the Aras River. (d) Layers with distinct pigmentation in the decalcified END8 colony from the Endrinales stream. (e) Tapering trichomes in the END8 colony from the Endrinales stream, similar to those of Rivularia. (f) Parallel and densely arranged filaments in the END1 colony from the Endrinales stream. Colored and lamellated sheaths of filaments in the ARA4 colony from the Aras River and (g) hyaline sheaths in other parts of the same ARA4 colony (h). Bars 1 mm (a,b), 200 μm (c,d), 100 μm (e,f), 20 μm (g,h).
