The trophic roles of microzooplankton in marine systems (2008, background): “On the other hand, another group of protists are potential candidates for such a trophic role: the heterotrophic (and perhaps mixotrophic as well) dinoflagellates (Strom and Strom, 1996; Stelfox-Widdicombe et al., 2004; Jeong et al., 2005a, 2005b; Saito et al., 2006; Sherr and Sherr, 2007).”
Zooplankton grazing on Phaeocystis: a quantitative review and future challenges (2007, background): “However, the protists Noctiluca scintillans (Weisse et al. 1994; Jakobsen and Tang 2002) and apparently Gyrodinium cf. spirale ( Stelfox-Widdicombe et al. 2004 ) are able to ingest small colonies, while some tintinnids and rotifers “attack” and “hover around colonies”, possibly ingesting released ce”
Current understanding of Phaeocystis ecology and biogeochemistry, and perspectives for future research (2007, background): “For smaller colonies, size may also be less important for those protozooplankton whose feeding mechanisms permit engulfment of larger prey, e.g., heterotrophic dinoXagellates ( Stelfox-Widdicombe et al. 2004 ).”
Biologically induced modification of seawater viscosity in the Eastern English Channel during a Phaeocystis globosa spring bloom (2006, background): “(2) At the beginning of the bloom, before colony formation, concentration of individual Phaeocystis cells can reach 106 to 107 cell l−1 (Peperzak, 2002; Seuront and Souissi, 2002; Stelfox-Widdicombe et al., 2004; present paper).”
