Cochlodinium polykrikoides is a red tide producing marine dinoflagellate known for causing fish kills around the world, and well known for fish kills in marine waters of Southeast Asia.
Massive blooms
In late 2008 and early 2009 (November–February) there was a massive bloom of Cochlodinium polykrikoides in the Sea of Oman, off the coast of Oman in the Arabian Sea. It was notable for being based on Cochlodinium polykrikoides rather than the Noctiluca scintillans (Noctiluca miliaris) that had been more usual in the immediately previous years. The bloom resulted in massive dying off of fish, damage to coral reefs, and interference with desalinization plants.
