Phytoplankton – such as this colony of Chaetoceros socialis – naturally give off fluorescent light as they dissipate excess solar energy that they cannot consume through photosynthesis.Bright-field microscopy image of epiphytic cyanobacterial symbiont Calothrix rhizosoleniae SC01 9 (indicated by arrows) attached to a host diatom Chaetoceros sp.

Chaetoceros is a genus of diatoms in the family Chaetocerotaceae, first described by the German naturalist C. G. Ehrenberg in 1844.[1] Species of this genus are mostly found in marine habitats, but a few species exist in freshwater.[2] It is arguably the common and most diverse genus of marine planktonic diatoms,[3] with over 200 accepted species.[1] It is the type genus of its family.[1]
Species in the genus Chaetoceros are found in marine waters all over the world, where they can often form algal blooms.[4] Some strains grow quickly and produce high amounts of lipids, sparking interest in potential usage for biofuels.[2]
