Downriver Walk 2015—Still More Leptothrix discophora

November 9, 2015

Sometimes a Leptothrix discophora film can look colorful but very shear, very translucent. Why? I don’t know. (For that matter, I don’t know why some of the L. discophora films look opaque.) The first photo shows what I mean. The other four photographs show a film where much or all of the water has run out from underneath it as the river recedes from the bank so that the film rests on rocks or soil.

      Thanks, Lynn. Glad they appeal to you. I keep telling people: You have to see these things for yourself! But Leptothrix discophora films are often elusive; you have to know when and where to look, and even how to look.
