The choreotrichs are a group of small marine ciliates. Their name reflects the impression that they appear to dance ('choreo' as in choreography). The group includes the tintinnids, which produce species-specific loricae (shells), and are important because these may be preserved as microfossils. The cyst forms have been suggested to be affiliated to Chitinozoans, although other studies suggest Chitinozoans to have affinities to larger marine animals, and not tintinnids.Often they have been included among the oligotrichs. Tintinnids seem to be an excessively specious group as over 400 living species have been described, based on characteristics of the lorica or shell.

El grupo incluye a los tintínidos (Tintinnida), que producen caparazones característicos de cada especie y que se conservan como microfósiles. Estos últimos son importantes por ser los únicos ciliados tempranos que se conocen, apareciendo en el Ordovícico y siendo comunes durante el período Jurásico. Del grupo de los tintínidos se han descrito unas 400 especies vivas, basándose en las características de los caparazones. Algunas veces, alternativamente se han incluido en Oligotrichia. (es)

| - The choreotrichs are a group of small marine ciliates. Their name reflects the impression that they appear to dance ('choreo' as in choreography). The group includes the tintinnids, which produce species-specific loricae (shells), and are important because these may be preserved as microfossils. The cyst forms have been suggested to be affiliated to Chitinozoans, although other studies suggest Chitinozoans to have affinities to larger marine animals, and not tintinnids.Often they have been included among the oligotrichs. Tintinnids seem to be an excessively specious group as over 400 living species have been described, based on characteristics of the lorica or shell. Choreotrichs (including tintinnids) are part of the microzooplankton. Generally small (20–200 micrometres in size) organisms found in the plankton. They feed on small algae and serve as prey for larger organisms in the plankton such as copepods and larval fish. (en)

Choreotrichia (incluyendo Tintinnida) forma parte del microzooplancton. Son generalmente pequeños (tamaño, 20 - 200 μm), se alimentan de algas pequeñas y son presas de organismos planctónicos más grandes tales como copépodos y larvas de peces. (es)
