Diet general for group: both heterotrophic (eat other organisms) and autotrophic (photosynthetic) [details]Distribution coastal, also estuarine and oceanic; cosmopolitan in cold 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]
