All Symbiotic and Free-Living Dinoflagellates

Symbiotic and Free-Living Dinoflagellates is a Browse By group of the Nature Atlas that gathers dinoflagellates and the dinoflagellate lineage as a whole when the entry is known for something other than harmful toxins, such as Symbiodinium, the zooxanthellae that live inside reef corals and give them food, and Ceratium, the armored plankton whose body is drawn out into long horns. An entry belongs here when its own cited article describes a dinoflagellate, or the dinoflagellates in general, without making toxic blooms its main subject. It excludes the red tide and toxin-producing dinoflagellates. The group lets a reader compare partnership and ordinary plankton lifestyles within one lineage.
