Pyrocystis fusiformis is a non-motile, tropical, epipelagic, bioluminescent, marine dinoflagellate, reaching lengths of up to 1 mm. They are especially interesting to many because of their bioluminescent nature. When found in the ocean or in ponds, this dinoflagellate causes glowing effects when left in the dark (such as after sunset).
