portrait

Euglena mutabilis (you-glean-a mew-tab-ill-iss), is a moderately long but usually thin worm-like euglena. It may or may not have an emerging flagellum, and distinguished from similarly-shaped species by the relatively small number of large chloroplasts - about four can be clearly made out in this cell. The image also shows (from anterior - top): stigma or eyespot, flagellar pocket, and nucleus in the middle of the cell. Typically very metabolic - squirming a lot. Differential interference contrast.  This picture was taken by David Patterson and Mark Farmer of material from freshwater sites in the vicinity of the University of Georgia in Athens, Georgia, USA) in April, 2001 and from collections of organisms maintained at the University.
