Rotifer. Polarised light micrograph of a Ptygura sp. rotifer. Rotifers are common multicellular animals found in pond water. This species is a sessile rotifer. It builds a protective tube from its own secretions and surrounding detritus,from which a corona of beating hair-like cilia protrudes,creating a current that sweeps food into the mouth.
