Ventral view of Lingulodinium polyedra as observed by a scanning electron microscope. Cell diameter is roughly 40 micrometers.L. polyedra Bioluminescing at Scripps Institution of Oceanography on September 29, 2011 (exposure: 1 sec / F2.8 / ISO 6400)
Lingulodinium polyedra is a species of motile photosynthetic dinoflagellates. L. polyedra are often the cause of red tides in southern California, leading to bioluminescent displays on beaches at night.
