This is a fluorescence microscopy image revealing the intricate cell wall sugars of听Batrachochytrium salamandrivorans, a chytrid fungus that is leading a global amphibian pandemic. In the image, we can see the body of the parent fungi poised to release a new generation of spores that will seek out amphibian prey.听
