Durusdinium is a genus of dinoflagellate algae within the family Symbiodiniaceae. Durusdinium can be free living, or can form symbiotic associations with hard corals.[2] Members of the genus have been documented in reef-building corals of the Indian[3] and Pacific[4] oceans, as well as the Caribbean.[5] Prior to 2018, Durusdinium were classified as Symbiodinium Clade D.[6]
