Caenorhabditis elegans feeding on a lawn of bacteria ( Escherischia coli OP50). The surface of the bacterial suspension is churned up by numerous trails of worms crisscrossing the agar plate.

Probably Dauer larval stage, Caenorhabditis elegans (C. Elegans) can adopt an alternative life form, called the dauer larval stage, if plates are too crowded or if food is scarce.
