Taking a closer look at Bryozoa
Over the past few weeks I have been learning the art of Electron Microscopy. As many of the characteristics Bryozoologists use to identify Bryozoa species are smaller than a millimetre in size highly magnified images can reveal hidden pores and spines. Our binocular light microscopes can magnify up to 50x magnification but a Scanning Electron Microscope can produce images which are over 1000x magnification.
