Arachnoidiscus sp. diatom, light micrograph

Differential interference contrast (DIC) light micrograph of a single Arachnoidiscus sp. diatom. Diatoms are single-celled photosynthetic algae, of which there are about 100,000 species. They have mineralised cell walls (frustules) that contain silica and provide protection and support. Diatoms exist in huge numbers in marine and freshwater environments. They form an important part of the plankton at the base of the marine and freshwater food chains.
