What metric do you want. In any metric up to and including ecosystem roles, microorganisms will be more diverse than macro.

Oh did you want size? Yep. Microorganisms make colonial hyphae which are bigger than any living organism except maybe some colonial trees.

Are you willfully ignoring my earlier point that pointed that out and concluded that therefore sneakily comparing megafauna to microbes is disingenous?
