Dinoflagellate and fungus?

Post by Tardigrade37 »

Hi all,

I have a very rancid freshwater sample that was derived from flooded some tree-borne sphagnum branches. I can't say that I have ever seen this before, but there were more than one found in this sample, so I think it is "something"... Any ideas?

Interesting topic and beautiful images.
I find it difficult to recognize the organism with a photo
