Cyclotella caspia, in Mamaia Bay. Huge quantities<br />

of adult gobies, sole, plaice and turbot juveniles<br />

were washed up on the beaches or caught in<br />

lethargic condition from the sea by fishermen.<br />

As a matter of fact, HALLEGRAFF (1995)<br />

consi<strong>de</strong>rs that species vegetating in <strong>de</strong>nsities over<br />

5∙10 6 cells∙l -1 are harmful, since phytoplankton<br />

hyperproduction leads to regular violations of the<br />

ecosystem carrying capacity and severe economic<br />

losses to aquaculture, fisheries and tourism<br />

operations [9].<br />

However, some of algal species wi<strong>de</strong>ly<br />

distributed at the Romanian coastal waters, such as<br />

Chaetoceros socialis, C. curvisetus, Dichtyocha<br />

speculum, Ceratium fusus, can seriously damage<br />

fish gills, either mechanically or through<br />

production of hemolytic substances. Other ones,<br />

such as P. minimum, Dinophysis acuta,<br />

D. acuminata, D, sacculus, D. rotundata,<br />

M. aeruginosa are consi<strong>de</strong>red potentially toxic<br />

species, having the capacity to produce potent<br />

toxins, like DSP (diarrheic shellfish poisoning),<br />

that through the food chain could cause a variety of<br />

gastrointestinal illness to humans [9].<br />

The relationship between anthropogenic<br />

activities and changes in phytoplankton<br />

composition and diversity is one of the main<br />

objectives proposed in Harmful Algal Blooms<br />

research. Long time series of phytoplankton<br />

community storage in the NIMRD data base should<br />

be reconsi<strong>de</strong>red related to HAB increase.<br />
