Any thoughts on this gorgeous object? It looks a bit like a dinocyst from the dinoflagellate genus Brigantedinium, but might be too big? My other thought is a flatworm egg of some kind. What do you think?

I’m really not sure about this one. It’s pretty raggedy and beat-up. I’m wondering, could this be foraminifera Procerolagena multilaterata? I need to make friends with a #foram expert to check my #foraminifera IDs! Anyone willing to be my go-to scientist?

I’m still none the wiser about these mysteries. Flatworm eggs? Foraminifera? If you can shed any light on to these beauties, please share your knowledge! There are 2 individuals here. Pic 1 is one fella, and pics 2 and 3 are the other fella (who appears to have a spiky surface).

I’m super excited by this one. I think, I _think_, this is Amphitetras antediluviana, a new-to-me species of diatom from Cromer. I ADORE their cubic form 🎁 (yes more geometry!)

Oh the wondrous geometry of diatoms! This fabulous triangular number is Triceratium favus.

Can anyone shed any light on this little mystery? Too big to be the diatom Cylindrotheca closterium, my second guess is a dinoflagellate (perhaps Amphisolenia sp.?). What do you think? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Oooo! New (to me) things! I think these are some dinocysts of the Polykrikos genus of dinoflagellates. If you think different, let me know! #alwayslearning

Barnacles! Yes, this is a barnacle. Difficult to believe I know, but barnacles are actually crustaceans (like crabs and lobsters) and start out just like they do, including this nauplius stage. You can tell it’s a barnacle nauplius due to its horns! It has a few more stages to go through before it settles.

A marine mite amongst the sand and diatoms. I’m digging his outfit - very funky!

Twisty twisty! This colonial diatom Asterionellopsis glacialis is increasing in my samples. It has been known to bloom around here so it’ll be interesting to see how, when, and if that happens this year.

I could watch the ballet of colonial diatom Bacillaria paxilliferea for hours. Mesmerising!

This was a weird one. So pretty and I’d never seen anything like it! The wonderful @microbe_guru over on insta came to my rescue once more and informed me it is a Radiosperma - a protist. I know nothing about them, so I’m off to read a paper.

A mystery! Anyone know what this might be? Plankton sample, North Norfolk, UK (North Sea). Fixed with Lugols

This is the first time I’ve seen Thalassiosira eccentrica as a joined pair! Can you see the little thread between them joining them together? It’s the little things that get me excited!

More new-to-me species! I’m thinking this diatom is Aulacodiscus argus. Time to do my new species dance! 🕺

The diversity of my samples is definitely on the up! 😍 My first Triceratium favus (a diatom) in valve and girdle view.

This is super pretty and I _think_ it’s my first Bolivinitidae (family) Foraminifera! Let me know if you can get it to genus (or even species!).

This species seems to be increasing in my samples at the moment - Asterionellopsis glacialis

Some round things from my @norwichsciencefestival and @norfolkwt sample. a foraminifera, a copepod egg, and a Gastropod larva. As always, correct me if I’m wrong!

A time lapse of what I think is a Gastropod embryo. I loved watching this, I hope you do too!

Thalassiosira punctigera I believe! A great opportunity to see this diatom in girdle _and_ valve view.

Can anyone help me with this mystery? I find lots of these short chains of diatoms in my samples. Is it a Chaetoceros sp. ? The examples always have these short setae. And if so, which one!!?? This is also my first attempt at stacking. 😬

I’m still on that steep dinoflagellate cysts learning curve ! Here are some spikey fellas from my latest sample.

From a couple of years back - a spider crab that had washed up and died on the tideline. What a beautiful creature!

I was super stoked to capture the difference in segment heights on the frustule of this diatom. Actinoptychus senarius.

My first Odontella rhombus f. trigona (_I think_). A three-sided joy to behold!

When I first saw this prawn (Palaemon sp.) in the rockpools last year, I though I’d stumbled on a new species! But alas no. This poor chap is infected with a fungus Inodosporus octosporus, which has caused his insides to turn a milky white. The common name of this infection is, in fact, milk disease!

Oooo, have I found something new (for me)? Looks like a ciliate called a Tintinnid. Not the whole thing, just the lorica, in which the cell lives. I’m thinking Favella sp. What do you think?

The velvet swimming crab aka devils crab (Necora puber) has a bit of a rep. I don’t think the devil bit in the name helps! Admittedly, they do seem a little aggressive when you come across them! I’m always impressed with their ‘I’m bigger than you!’ attitude 😍

This is very cool. Some dinoflagellates have a resting stage as part of their lifecycle, called a dinocyst (or hypnozygote). And here’s one! A dinocyst of the genus Protoperidinium.

A stunning Terebellidae worm dances under the microscope. It uses its many tentacles to grab food and they’re usually hidden in sediment, rock crevices, or in this case, in a sponge sample I brought home to ID.

Three animals that look like seaweed. From left to right, sponge (mermaid’s glove), bryozoan (hornwrack), hydroid (unsure of species, maybe helter skelter).
All found on the beach this morning.#marinebiology #marinebiologyuk #northnorfolkcoast #northsea #sea #ocean #biology #wildlife #nature #intertidal #bryozoan #hydroid #sponge

Pennant’s swimming crab (Portumnus latipes). Something I don’t see very often in the intertidal, like, this is it, just the once. When you regularly explore rocky shores, you start to notice the subtle differences between species, and it’s always exciting to see something new!

Common hermit crabs (Pagurus bernhardus) always seem to be hungry. These guys are working hard to pluck organic matter from the water to consume. Link to YouTube video below ⬇️

I’m super excited by this one! I believe this is a copepod embryo/nauplius in its hatching membrane (Lugol fixed)😯. After the embryo matures, it breaks out of the outer cyst in this membrane, which then expands before bursting and releasing the nauplius. Swipe to see what I think is an empty cyst (I was wondering this was for ages!)

Sea gooseberries (Pleurobrachia pileus) are awesome! We had masses of them washing up on some of our beaches last year. Sea gooseberries are in the Phylum Ctenophora (so not jellyfish!) and they don’t have stinging cells. Instead, their tentacles are sticky and their prey gets stuck before being passed to the Sea Gooseberry’s mouth.
