Apodinium floodi is an ectoparasitic dinoflagellate found in the vicinity of northwest Washington, USA. Its host is the sea squirt . Trophozoites of A. floodi are encased by membrane and divisions of young trophozoites produce a single file of sporogenic cells. Divisions occur perpendicular to this axis, and eventually the spores are produced. A. floodi attaches to its host with a peduncle, which it penetrates into the larvacean tunicate's musculature, reaching the notochord. Two principle rhizoids penetrate the outer region of the notochord, presumably to absorb nutrients from O. labradoriensis blood.
