Haplozoon
''Haplozoon'' (/hæploʊ’zoʊən/) are unicellular endo-parasites, primarily infecting maldanid polychaetes. They belong to Dinoflagellata but differ from typical dinoflagellates. Most dinoflagellates are free-living and possess two flagella. Instead, ''Haplozoon'' belong to a 5% minority of parasitic dinoflagellates that are not free-living. Additionally, the ''Haplozoon'' trophont stage is particularly unique due to an apparent lack of flagella. The presence of flagella or remnant structures is the subject of ongoing research. At first glance, ''Haplozoon'' also do not appear unicellular – in fact they were originally classified as a possible transitional stage between protists and multicellular organisms.Shumway, W. (1924). The genus ''Haplozoon'', Dogiel. Observations on the life history and systematic position. ''The Journal of Parasitology, 11''(2), 59-74. They have more recently been classified as compartmentalized syncytia – single cells with multiple nuclei that ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Dinoflagellate
The dinoflagellates (Greek δῖνος ''dinos'' "whirling" and Latin ''flagellum'' "whip, scourge") are a monophyletic group of single-celled eukaryotes constituting the phylum Dinoflagellata and are usually considered algae. Dinoflagellates are mostly marine plankton, but they also are common in freshwater habitats. Their populations vary with sea surface temperature, salinity, and depth. Many dinoflagellates are photosynthetic, but a large fraction of these are in fact mixotrophic, combining photosynthesis with ingestion of prey ( phagotrophy and myzocytosis). In terms of number of species, dinoflagellates are one of the largest groups of marine eukaryotes, although substantially smaller than diatoms. Some species are endosymbionts of marine animals and play an important part in the biology of coral reefs. Other dinoflagellates are unpigmented predators on other protozoa, and a few forms are parasitic (for example, '' Oodinium'' and '' Pfiesteria''). Some dinoflagell ...
