It appears to have:

• 2-4 Flagella.
  -Green pigments when living in outdoor waters. And no pigments when kept indoors for a period of about 1 month. I assume it is both photosynthetic and heterotrophic.
  -Images are 1000x oil immersion light microscopy. Some images are increased in size digitally.
  -I would describe the overall shape of the organism as like a concave leaf shape.
