31238
Scientific Name Karlodinium micrum
Comments Karlodinium micrum has an equatorial flagellum lying in a groove (girdle or cingulum) near the centre of the cell and a second flagellum trailing behind the cell and arising in a longitudinal groove or sulcus. The large gray area posterior to the girdle is the nucleus. The orange element is probably a residue from ingested food (Rhodomonas).

Scientific Name Gymnodinium catenatum
Comments Gymnodinium catenatum is a chain forming motile species associated with the production of toxins. This chain contains 16 cells, but the chains may be of differing lengths, and other genera may form similar chains. Cells coloured because of presence of chloroplasts.

Scientific Name Cladochytrium sp.
Location material from freshwater sites in the vicinity of the Universit y of Georgia in Athens, Georgia, USA and from collections of organisms maintained at the University
Comments Cladochytrium is a chytrid, in which the cytoplasm develops into a system of fine branching rhizoids which are used to pick up food. This image shows the distinctive two part expansions of the rhizoidal system.
