A Nematologist by profession and hearts, but an artsy detective by nature. If I cannot solve a nematode mystery with science then art just has to do.

Still can't get over the beauty of the spiral shaped amphid 🌀 of this female Achromadora sp. This algae 🦠 and diatom feeder was found in soil from cultivated maize/corn fields in South Africa 🌍. Usually found in aquatic environments and amongst mosses 🏞️ #nematode #ecology #FreeLivinfNematodes
