Looks like this is the trend right now. How could I pass that up? You should see the machine I become when I focus. I would normally take one to two weeks, but I was so desperate that I finished this today.
The drawing shows the fossil animal in my style (Pochitaserra patriciacanalae), using Carlost Sapiens’s drawing as a reference. I decided to get creative with my animal’s design. Feel free to examine the drawing closely. Find all the hidden references!
Well, well, well… what do we have here? A microorganism, obviously.

Rhodelphis limneticus is one of the species within the genus Rhodelphis, relatives of red algae, except they lack color and act as predators. The following image shows a scientific reconstruction of the organism’s anatomy, highlighting its most representative parts according to the description in “Non-photosynthetic predators are sister to red algae” by Gawryluk et al. (2019).
And let’s not forget the clean version without labels for easier use:
Important notes: the illustrated parts are purely schematic and not necessarily to scale (although I have tried to keep the proportions as faithful as possible to the micrographs presented in the article mentioned above). The colors are for illustration and visibility purposes only, since the organism itself is transparent. Only the most notable anatomical parts are shown; not every structure of the organism is represented. Also, keep in mind that individual variation exists—a specimen of Rhodelphis limneticus may display differences not reflected in this image. That’s Biology, lil' fella. That's why I stayed away from the molecular side of things.
I believe that covers the key details. The image is free to use. If you want to translate the labels and such, feel free. The only requirement is to credit me as the author of the drawing: DOTkamina 2025.
