Tetraselmis convolutae endosymbiotic in Symsagittifera roscoffens (formerly called Convoluta roscoffens, a flat acoelomate that is not a platyhelminth) that undergoes vertical migration in sand (up during at least part of the day to enable photosynthesis by the endobiont, down at night likely for both nutrient uptake and avoidance of predation).
