[Photo collage] Marine diatom (Coscinodiscus waleissi). Being a major part of the phytoplankton community, Coscinodiscus, like other diatoms, plays a role in carbon and silicon cycling in marine environments. When they die, their silica frustules sink to the seafloor, contributing to the marine silica cycle and sometimes forming diatomaceous deposits. Microscopic image with selective focus.
