Dear Protistologists,
We are attempting to identify an unknown organism in sediment samples from
the Santa Barbara Basin, California. This is a dysoxic site, ca. 580 meters
water depth. The organism is found in Beggiatoa mats.
We have posted an image of the unknown critter at the following URL:
http://www.global2000.net/users/bowser
[Be careful to use "global two-thousand" and not "globa 12000" in the URL].
The image is reached by clicking on the "tiny creature" hyperlink in the
third bullet on Bowser's home page.
We greatly appreciate your help!
Sincerely,
Joan Bernhard
Sam Bowser
