[2]: 518 The microbiologist examines the appearance of the colony, noting specific features such as size, colour, shape, consistency, and opacity. [1]: 165–8 A hand lens or magnifying glass may be used to view colonies in greater detail. [3]: 96 The opacity of a microbial colony can be described as transparent, translucent, or opaque.
The formation of patterns in the growth of bacterial colonies has extensively been studied experimentally. Resulting morphologies appear to depend on the growth conditions. They include well known morphologies such as dense branched morphology (DBM) or diffusion-limited aggregation (DLA), but much complex patterns and temporal behaviour can be fou

Colony ontogeny refers to the developmental process and progression of a colony. It describes the various stages and changes that occur within a colony from its initial formation to its mature state. [14] The exact duration and dynamics of colony ontogeny can vary greatly depending on the species and environmental conditions.
Colony characteristics Large, eugonic, buff coloured and rough colonies ( Löwenstein-Jensen medium at 30 °C). Cauliflower-like morphology, resembling M. tuberculosis colonies.
Cyanobacterial morphology refers to the form or shape of cyanobacteria. Cyanobacteria are a large and diverse phylum of bacteria defined by their unique combination of pigments and their ability to perform oxygenic photosynthesis. [2] [3] Cyanobacteria often live in colonial aggregates that can take a multitude of forms. [3]
