Exploring today with our SEM. Here are Nucula proxima & Nuculana acuta, 2 marine bivalves that live in the N. Gulf of Mexico; Top left is N. acuta, top right is N. proxima, lower left is a close-up of N. proxima, and lower right of N. acuta. Close-ups show their lovely larval shells!

Diatoms on grains visualized using scanning electron microscopy! are a type of microalgae that have intricate and delicate silica shells. Scanning electron microscopy provides incredible detail, allowing us to appreciate the intricacies of morphology.

Bivalve larval shells from the continental shelf (-20 meters) offshore Alabama, imaged this evening in my lab. Images, clockwise from the upper left, are (1) Parvalucina crenella, (2) Nucula proxima, and (3) Anadara (most likely A. transversa).
