Euglena

Euglena was my very first favorite protozoa. They have what I would call the best of both worlds. Chloroplasts in which they perform photosynthesis, and they are also quite capable of eating small bacteria. This little movies illustrates the presence of its flagella and red eyespot; a more highly developed photosensitive area on the body, than its chloroplasts.
