Caption:
Under a magnification of 600X, this photomicrograph revealed ultrastructural characteristics displayed by the fungal organism, Coccidioides immitis. Note the numerous chains of anthrospores, which are those spores originating from the organism’s mycelia. The average arthrospore measures 3.0 x 4.5µm, and is barrel-shaped. See PHIL 15784, for another view of this specimen under a lesser magnification.
