In my opinion, the picture shows leaf hairs e.g. of Hippophae rhamnoides.
The hairs are multicelled and concentrically built up. They form a
transpiration reducing layer on the original epidermis.

Hello,
This is a darkfield image from a prepared microscope slide labelled
"Fern Spicules." The nominal magnification is about 100X.
I am not knowledgeable about fern reproduction other than to recognize
that this may be a gametophyte or some stage along the way.,
What are these and can anone name the species?

Thanks for the help.
