More frequent events and geographic expansion of benthic harmful algal blooms have been reported in recent years. An unexpected bloom of benthic P. concavum occurred in Xincun Bay, Hainan Island, the South China Sea was monitored in August 2018. Species

Approximately 70 species of Prorocentrum are known, of which around 30 species are associated with benthic habitats. Some produce okadaic acid (OA), dinophysistoxin (DTX) and their derivatives, which are involved in diarrhetic shellfish poisoning. In

The response of marine ecosystems to rapid climate changes has been well recognized but not studied extensively. Benthic microalgae, in contrast to the phytoplankton that is able to be transported by currents, have limited dispersal ability and thus are

A harmful benthic Prorocentrum concavum bloom was recorded in August 2018 in Xincun Bay, China, which is the location of a national seagrass nature reserve. Annual ecological surveys have been conducted to study the population dynamics of P. concavum
