Dinos ID (photo/video microscope)

[SahnCH]

Hi there!

I would need your help to ID dinos - from the shape I feel like this should be Amphidinium but with the movement pattern I have doubts with Ostreopsis... or Prorocentrum...
I'm basically lost :-)
What do you think ?

Thank you for your precious help!

Amphidinium has the telltale “hook”

No other opinion ? :) Confident this is Amphidinium ?

SahnCH. Which microscope did you use?

 

[SahnCH]

I used a VWR VISISCOPE 200 with a 40x lens :)

Are you sure this is not Ostreopsis ?

There's a FB group dedicated for dino ids and solutions to deal with them
