Abstract

This account firstly outlines the relationships between algal diversity and chloroplast acquisition through endosymbiosis. Secondly, it briefly reviews chloroplast diversity in dinoflagellates. Particular emphasis is placed on the evolutionary process in the small but interesting group of dinoflagellates that possess a diatom endosymbiont.
