    Dinophysis acuta is a species of flagellated planktons belonging to the genus Dinophysis. It is one of the few unusual photosynthetic protists that acquire plastids from algae by endosymbiosis. By forming massive blooms, particularly in late summer and spring, it causes red tides. It produces toxic substances and … See more

    Dinophysis acuta was the overwhelmingly dominant (>96%) Dinophysis species in the filtered bottle samples collected from 5 depths on the first two cruises, but the situation changed in March, when D. acuminata represented between 30% and 57% of the total between 0 and 8 m depth. 3.6. Water renewal time
    In the Galician Rías, populations of D. acuta with their epicentre located off Aveiro (northern Portugal), typically co-occur with and follow those of Dinophysis acuminata during the upwelling transition (early autumn) as a result of longshore transport.
    Dinophysis acuminata and D. acuta, which follows it seasonally, are the main producers of lipophilic toxins in temperate coastal waters, including Southern Chile. Strains of the two species differ in their toxin profiles and impacts on shellfish resources.
