Gyrodinium helveticum é um dinoflagelado dulcícola desarmado com um sulco espiral característico que divide a célula em dois lóbulos desiguais. Habita lagos e lagoas em regiões temperadas e alpinas europeias, incluindo a Suíça, onde foi descrito pela primeira vez. Este protista mixotrófico realiza fotossíntese e também pode se alimentar de outros microrganismos.
