Rotifers
1913 13 minDocumentário, Short
Can you imagine how infinitesimal one-tenth of a millimeter is? Can you imagine highly organized forms as minute as this? And yet, those forms, known as Rotifers, are gigantic when compared to the diatoms which surround them. A German naturalist of the 17th Century discovered Rotifers when the dust in his roof-gutter moistened in process of cleaning. This naturalist made a profound study of the species. His discoveries, with those that have since been made, are interestingly and understandingly shown in this film. Not the least interesting feature of the film is that practically all but the introductory pictures were photographed underwater.
