Unreviewed

Diet general for group: both heterotrophic (eat other organisms) and autotrophic (photosynthetic) [details]

Distribution mostly coastal, oceanic to estuarine; cosmopolitan in temperate to tropical waters [details]

Habitat pelagic [details]

Importance General: known for producing dangerous toxins, particularly when in large numbers, called "red tides" because the cells are so abundant they make water change color. Also they can produce non-fatal or fatal amounts of toxins in predators (particularly shellfish) that may be eaten by humans. [details]

Predators marine microorganisms and animal larvae [details]

Reproduction general for group: both sexual and asexual [details]
