Veil formed by sulfur-oxidizing bacteria on marine sediment close to
Helsingør, Denmark

Sulfur-oxidizing bacteria are often conspicuously big and show a rich variety of motility patterns. Their motility enables them to aggregate at the oxic-anoxic interface between oxygenated and sulfidic regions in the water. Recently, a new species of probably sulfur-oxidizing bacteria exhibiting a unique motility behavior has been discovered in Helsingør, Denmark.
