Dinoflagellate Habitat

Here is a short clip of dinoflagellates (Dinos) in motion. These PyroDinos (Pyrocystis fusiformis) are not motile (i.e. not self-propelled). In this short clip, the PyroDinos are being stirred while they are being filmed. The name 'fusiformis' is in refernce to thier spindle (tapering at both ends) shape.
