| Description: | DOWN AMONGST THE ROTIFERS Microbiology film - x-ray photography of a strange miniature pond creature. United Kingdom Shot filmed through microscope of rotifer wiggling about. Even closer shot, showing corona, consisting of 2 circles of cilia which look like 2 spinning hairy wheels attached to the critter; this is typical of family Philodinidae. Another rotifer type or another view shows just 2 perfect circles with smooth edges; can see some movement in a rotating ring just inside the circle. Even more magnified view of one of these; the revolving ring seems to be made up of tiny particles.
