An energy transfer pathway in a carotenoid-chlorophyll a protein complex of dinoflagellates was studied by the femtosecond up-conversion method. The energy levels of the S 2 state of peridinin and their lifetime were essentially identical in methanol and in the complex. The S l lifetime of peridinin
