Volvox globator is a species of colonial green algae that forms spherical colonies of cells.

Demonstrates isogamous reproduction where gametes are similar in appearance and behavior. Make lectures and labs on protist reproduction clearer with our specially selected cultures that illustrate various reproductive phenomona.

Marine. Filamentous. Branched thallus, zoospores. Erdschreiber’s medium.

Kelp and seaweed; with a distinct set of photosynthetic pigments.

Characterized by a lack of rigid cellulosic walls, instead these organisms have pellicles made of protein. They store paramylon instead of starch.
