Dinoflagellate movement in a Berghia stephanieae juvenile. Video stills (Additional file 4: Video 3) showing the rapid movement (fractions of a second) of dinoflagellates (brown circles) both into and out of the cnidosac via contractions of the digestive gland. In (AC) dinoflagellates move into the cnidosac within 0.8 s; In (DF), the same dinoflagellates move out of the cnidosac in 1.2 s. Abbreviations: cs, cnidosac; en, entrance; d, dinoflagellates, dg, digestive gland
