Cytoplasm of Coleps hirtus. The cytosol contains rough ER (rer), mitochondria, peroxisomes (per), early endosomes (ee) and bacterial (bact) endosymbionts. Small and large extrusomes are also present. The bacteria are contained in vacuoles bearing ribosomes on their cytosolic side. al, alveolus; pm, plasma membrane; iam, inner alveolar membrane; oam, outer alveolar membrane; Gc, Golgi complex.
