I took this photo (and the sample) in the Adriatic Sea (Mljet, Croatia) on June 10th this year. The dinoflagellates I can identify to the genus. They are Tripos - correct me if I am wrong.
But I am not that good with animals. What is this thing on the left-hand side?

You can’t just make up words like that and think people won’t notice.

Making up words like that is called taxonomy. We have international societies that validate this kind of word creation.

Far from an expert, but it looks like some sort of tiny arthropod?

Yeah, I think it might be a Crustacean or a Tardigrade. In the latter case, I am happy with the phylum name. But for a Crustacean (or some other arthropod) I would like to know better...
