Plumbing depths: a close look at some microscopic sea-creatures
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: In a previous article (infocus 70 pp. 4 - 15) I described some amazing structures produced by single-cell amoeba known as diatoms. Their sub-microscopic, silica shells became very popular microscope specimens in the 19th Century, and a large number of carefully mounted slides survive today, some of which are keenly sought-after.
