From regional or thematic species database
Description Large cell with two posterior V-shaped processes, one extends almost the length of the main body and is midway between the ventral and dorsal margins, while the other is short and dorsal. The left sulcal list is broader posteriorly and has a straight margin. Type E surface markings.  [details]

Distribution Widely distributed in tropical and temperate waters of both hemispheres. Also found occasionally in colder areas such as the northern Norwegian Sea (transported by warmer water masses, Johnsen and Lømsland, 2012) and subantarctic waters of the South Atlantic. [details]

Harmful effect 36 pg/cell of DTX1 in HPLC-FD analyses of picked cells according to Lee et al. (1989). No toxins found in picked cells from Hokkaido (Suzuki et al. 2009).
High levels of PTX2 (179-232 pg/cell) in cultures of Galician strains analyzed by LC-MS (Rodríguez et al., 2012). When D. tripos was the only species in Dinophysis blooms (45-90 pg PTX2/cell), no toxins detected in shellfish. This could be explained because PTX2 is very quickly converted into non toxic PTX2 SA by mussels.
 [details]

Identification The species can be distinquished from D. caudata by the shape of the left sulcal list and the presence of the two posterior processes.
 [details]

Synonymy See Schiller 1933 page 159 for old synonyms. Dinophysis diegensis Kofoid 1907 and D. taylorii Hernandez-Becerril 1992 have been suggested as 'small cells' in the life cycle of D. caudata and D. tripos (Reguera & Gonzalez-Gil 2001, J. Phycol. 37: 318-333). However, small cells of D. tripos, observed in cultures of this species, are different from Dinophysis diegensis, the small cells of D. caudata. Therefore, D. diegensis should not be considered a synonym of D. tripos (Rodríguez et al. 2012) [details]

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