This microscopic freshwater organism, Limnias malicerta, is a rotifer, recognized by its rotating wheel-like structures. It uses spinning cilia on its head to swim and capture tiny food like algae and bacteria.

Hello little rotifer! I think this is a rotifer from the genus Proales, from my latest marine plankton sample.

Good morning - I hope you slept like protozoan-stuffed rotifer - I'm starting with 'Winter. Rooks and Rain', Gertrude Hermes, print from a linocut, 1950.

I wanted to see if it would be possible to wake up rotifer orbs after anesthesia, since rotifers usually require live identification, and it turns out that yes you can but for some reason the anesthesia makes them all leave the orb. also here are rotifer eyes

Finally, some decent footage of a Synchaeta sp. rotifer, albeit very short footage!

The Now: Editing footage of a rarely seen Antarctic rotifer that I found living inside a glacier a few months ago.
I nicknamed it "rotifer with pointy sides" before learning which species it was. You can watch the video of this lil' friend at https://youtu.be/5qgrHvUkVVc 🧪 🇦🇶
