mag. 400x

  • A pond-side water/periphyton sample was taken 04/22/2024 using a small sample bottled attached to an extension pole. Air temp 61F.

Similar to Gloeocapsa pictured here https://www.flickr.com/photos/johngiez-/4465267701.
Not certain about the ID. No multi-laminations are visible in the sheaths. Colony appears to be an aggregate of multiple sheathed units, most often a unit appears to contain 2 cells. (Compare views at different focal plans in the second image (a composite). When in focus, the cells appear to have a granular/punctate surface; see the last image.
