I finally managed to find a pair of Thuricola sharing the same lorica. A rather cozy arrangement!

Beautiful images Ron, nice and clear with plenty of detail. It seems that protist are now getting up with the worldly ways of humans and are begining to cohabitate. I wonder if that is an alternative life style couple there? :roll: :wink:

You've certainly gotten some excellent images of these lately Ron. Looking at your scale bar they are a pretty good size... for some reason I had them pegged as being much smaller.
