This organism was found in pond water from a local pond on campus. This Protozoa was green and the pictures were taken at both 40x and 100x. This protist is often found in pond water and it is photosynthetic. That is the hallmark characteristic of this species. In general, protists defining characteristics are that they are eukaryotic organisms that are not plants,animals,nor fungi, but may share similar characteristics with them.

Mag. 400x
- A pond-side water sample was taken on 07/31/2023 using a 10µ dip net to enrich for microbes. Air temp. 75°F.
Small flagellate with a probing "nose". My scope could not resolve the critter cleanly, but it was fun to chase, after it swam into my field of view. (The 2nd image shows the small, inconspicuous, shadowy figure as it appeared in the 400x field.) I could only see it for a short interval before I lost the ability to track it. For fabulous images and video of R. nasuta, see the observations posted by iNatters @crseaquist and @zookanthos: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations?verifiable=true&taxon_id=881489&place_id=97394&preferred_place_id=1&locale=en-US.
