User's notes
Many cells of biflagellate unicellular green algae that seem too large to be Chlamydomonas (could not get an image of the flagella). I don't have any keys to the Chlamydomonadaceae which I suspect is the appropriate family. A culvert under the road had partially blocked and these were in the resulting pool. Scale bar is 50 um.
