The genus Ceratium is restricted to a small number (about 7) of freshwater dinoflagellate species. Previously the genus contained also a large number of marine dinoflagellate species. However, these marine species have now been assigned to a new genus called Tripos.[1]Ceratium dinoflagellates are characterized by their armored plates, two flagella, and horns.[2] They are found worldwide and are of concern due to their blooms.
