Cosmarium turpinii BREB. var. eximium WEST & G. S. WEST  The cells are only a little longer than wide and sexangular in shape. The cell halves are strongly tapered towards the flat, weakly emarginated cell ends. The central cut ist closed and right-anglularly opened at the outside end. The cell wall wears rows of warts. In the center of each cell half there is a clearly visible hemispheric bump. Dimension: Length: 60 – 70 µm, width: 50 – 60 µm Ecology: Sometimes in plancton of lakes and ponds.  Occurrence: Ubiquitous in temperate zones.

Dimension: Length (51)–60–77–(88) µm, width (43)–50–73 µm.Occurrence: Widespread in the shore areas of creeks, lakes and ponds, it sometimes also gets into the plankton.Left: Original graphic by Prof. Lenzenweger.Right: Photomicrograph by Prof. Lenzenweger. For microphotography, the microscope illumination was adjusted in such a way that as many features as possible that are important for species identification are prominently displayed.Copyright by Prof. Rupert Lenzenweger, Ried im Innkreis, Austria.© Wolfgang Bettighofer,images under Creative Commons License V 3.0 (CC BY-NC-SA).For permission to use of (high resolution) images please contact postmaster@protisten.de.For further information about the image, please click here: Link to protisten.de page
