But alas, they don't. I don't remember if Filoreta has any flagellates or cysts... but the fusing filose amoeba colonies seem to be common around that part of the tree.<br /><br />I'll blog about Chlorarachniophytes eventually. So many weird things about them, possibly partly because their plastids have attracted enough attention for those oddities to be found.Psi Wavefunctionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10829712736757471647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3643556495084083743.post-3386548305961793292011-03-24T08:07:25.789-07:002011-03-24T08:07:25.789-07:00This looks amazing!
