Morphology Desmanthos thiorenophilum
CELLULAR  
Staining  
Morphology Colourless cells in unbranched, more or less straight filaments which are thicker at the base than at the apex; filaments in bundles, the base of which is enclosed in a common hyaline, gelatinous sheath of variable thickness; the filaments at the top are free and divergent
Motility Motility not observed
Specialized structures Bundles are attached by a holdfast or are partially buried in bottom mud. Propagation by fragmentation of filaments and probably by longitudinal separation of the bundle-filaments
