New records are added to the rotifer faunas of 49 countries, in 17 of which limno-terrestrial rotifers were studied for the first time: doi.org/10.3897/BDJ....

Recently, Russian scientists thawed out #rotifers from 24000 year old permafrost. They revived and immediately started reproducing themselves.

Excited to try this new rotifer stamp I made on clay! Reference photo is a beautiful microscopy image of the organism by Michael Shribak, Evgeny Ivashkin, and Kristin Gribble @mblscience.bsky.social @kristingribble.bsky.social #ceramics #SciArt #rotifers

An updated checklist of freshwater rotifers in Thailand: Taxonomy, diversity and distribution The Rotifera is the most diverse group of freshwater zooplankton. In Thailand, the research on rotifers began in 1907. Following extensive studies on rotifers in Thai water bodies, the first checklist...

A total of 409 freshwater rotifer species are recorded in Thailand, reflecting relatively high diversity.

#plankton sample taken July 5th. There is mist underwater. This sample represents large volumes of #rotifers and loads of egg shaped objects. Also green algae like Pandorina and Volvox.
After the sample settled, the water is still a bit hazy.

One drop of #plankton taken with a planktonnet today. #freshwater #microscopy #eudorina #volvox #rotifers #Microcystis

ROTIFERS (and a ciliate). It’s mostly #rotifers and I was practicing the “squash and stretch” animation principle. #art #inverts #invertebrates #weirdart #animation

Filinia is a genus of #rotifers in the family #Trochosphaeridae. The genus was #firstDescribed by #JeanBaptisteBoryDeSaintVincent in 1824. The genus has a #cosmopolitanDistribution.

I think I’m going to try Procreate Dreams and animate these buds. Will post progress! #rotifers #microworlds #littleguys #sciart #invertebrates

Heard this story on NPR! Women scientists are badasses! My kids loved hearing how the female
bdelloid rotifer are resilient and use horizontal gene transfer to keep it fresh! Bow chicka wow wow! 🤣👩‍🎤💪

This new study of #rotifers just out from mblscience.bsky.social 's Kristen Gribble brings together two of the oldest known factors that extend lifespan, both dating back to the early 20th century--caloric restriction and maternal age effects. How cool is that! pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39588710/
