Alexandrium catenella
Alexandrium catenella is a dinoflagellate. It is among the group of Alexandrium species that produce toxins that cause paralytic shellfish poisoning, and is a cause of red tide. These organisms have been found in the west coast of North America, Japan, Australia, and parts of South Africa. Alexandrium catenella's multiplication is stimulated by higher ammonia and inorganic nitrogen concentrations. The optimal growth conditions for A. catenella include a cool temperature of around 17 to 23 °C, a medium to light illumination of 3500 to 4000 lux, and a high salinity of around 26 to 32 percent.
