Home›Dinoflagellates›Diet›Photosynthetic AutotrophBrowse ByPhotosynthetic AutotrophDiet groups species by what they mainly eat: herbivores that feed on plants, carnivores that feed on other animals, omnivores that eat both, and narrower feeding styles such as insectivores, piscivores, filter feeders, detritivores and scavengers, and parasitic species that live on or in a host. A species is placed by its own typical adult feeding behavior as described on its page, not by an occasional or unusual meal.FactsPhotosynthetic AutotrophSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonReproductive ModeWell-attestedBinary Fission 1Photosynthetic AutotrophFilter Results5 entriesCommon GroupAllRed Tide and Toxin-Producing Dinoflagellates (3)TaxonomyAllDinophyceae (4)Eukarya (1)HabitatAllCoral Reef (1)Freshwater (1)Marine (1)Conservation StatusAllNot Evaluated (3)EcosystemAllCoral Reef Systems (1)Everyday GroupAllRed Tide and Toxin-Producing Dinoflagellates (3)System (Realm)AllMarine (4)Marine and Freshwater (1)Relationship to PeopleAllVenomous or Dangerous to Humans (1)Living or ExtinctAllYes (2)Where It LivesAllAustralia (1)Brazil (1)China (1)France (1)Mexico (2)Netherlands (1)Oman (1)Sweden (1)The Persian Gulf (1)Ukraine (1)United Kingdom (1)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 5Alexandrium CatenellaPhotosynthetic AutotrophDinoflagellatePhotosynthetic AutotrophGambierdiscus ToxicusPhotosynthetic AutotrophKarenia BrevisPhotosynthetic AutotrophSymbiodiniumPhotosynthetic AutotrophSources1.
