These cysts were harvested from sage grouse feces using a fecal flotation techniques. First picture, cyst has been stained with methyl green rhodamine B and the second with H & E.

Cysts are roughly 75 um long and 30 um wide

The second picture, the cyst has been 'popped'. I suspect that I am looking at one of the metacystic stage of a cestode.

Let me know what you guys think
