#trichodesmium  large colonial bacterium common in tropical open-ocean waters; important in carbon and nitrogen fixation
  supertype:  cyanobacteria__blue-green_algae  predominantly photosynthetic prokaryotic organisms containing a blue pigment in addition to chlorophyll; occur singly or in colonies in diverse habitats; important as phytoplankton
  member of:  genus_Trichodesmium  a genus of blue-green algae
     member of:  family_Oscillatoriaceae__Oscillatoriaceae  blue green algae
