Description:
These individuals are in the process of constructing new tests from quartz grains. Bcause members of the genus Astrammina have sturdy theca, they can easily be removed from their tests without injury. This allows easy study of the process of test assembly in these agglutinating forams. Image courtesy of Samuel S. Bowser, Wadsworth Center.
