Portrait of centrohelid heliozoan with thick wavy gelatinous mantle incorporating scales. Probably from a genus in the Raphidiophryidae Mikrjukov, 1996. This species contains zoochlorellae. From stagnant freshwater pool near Boise, Idaho. Phase contrast. I would like to thank Vasilij Zlatogursky of St. Petersburg University for his assistance in identifying this specimen.
