I'm sorry, but every time I see "Dinophyta" I think of little Triceratops and
Stegosaurs...
When I took graduate phycology, I designed a T-shirt to commemorate our
weekend-long field trip. The shirt shows the view under a microscope. In the
field are a Euglenid, a Scenedesmus colony, a Chlamydomonid of some sort--and
three dinoflagellates--a Triceratops, a Stegosaur, and a Brontosaurus, each,
of course with its proper median groove and flagellum in addition to the tail
flagellum. All are smiling, happy to be there.
The sleeve of the shirt has a jellyfish with the international "NO" symbol
over it. The back proclaims "I survived the phycology field trip" in 13
different languages.
