This video shows a dense microbial community on duckweed roots from a roadside ditch in Bangkok, Thailand.
Dense clusters of Vorticella are attached to the roots, while thousands of euglenoid algae move through the surrounding water where light is strongest.
MicroScapes are short observations of life within a single microscopic field of view.
Rather than focusing on individual organisms, these videos show how different forms of life share the same space — revealing patterns of movement, density, and coexistence that are often missed at higher magnification.
This video is part of the Thai MicroScapes series — an ongoing look at microscopic life across Thailand.
