Crustmas day 6! 🦐

I saw some posts with these ostracods (Strandesia sp.(?)) yesterday, so I wanted to share this one. Found in the greenhouses of the botanical gardens in Bonn. If anyone can help ID, that would be amazing! :D

My lab is looking for a PostDoc interested in the (almost) invisible.
Do you love microscopy and imaging approaches? Are you ready to test cutting-edge technology and innovative tools to overcome the taxonomic impediment? This post-doc position is for you!

Prostoma [most likely graecense] - freshwater #nemerteans from weekend fieldwork session. Biggest nemerteans which we ever found. Super annoying size - too big for microscope, too small for macro photo. Noodles will be examined histologicaly in following weeks. #zoology #meiofauna

#Biodiversity of symbiotic #microalgae associated with #meiofauna marine acoels in Southern Japan https://peerj.com/articles/16078/

"#Acoels are superficially simple. However, this is misleading... Acoels interest #biologists in the fields of evolutionary #biology, regenerative biology, and #neurobiology. Some acoels also form #symbiotic relationships with #algae."

Shining a light on tiny, solar-powered animals

Animals and plants need energy. Some animals get energy by eating other animals, and many plants harvest the energy in sunlight through photosynthesis. However, in the ocean, there exists a remarkable group of small, worm-like animals called acoels that do both; some acoels form relationships (symbiosis) with single-celled, photosynthetic microalgae.
