dc.description.abstract Since the 1980’s the frequency of harmful algal blooms (HABs) caused by the cyst-forming dinoflagellates has increased dramatically in Korean coastal waters. Although the distribution of dinoflagellate resting cysts has been widely investigated in Korean coastal areas, the morphological characteristics of resting cysts of potentially harmful dinoflagellates are still unclear. Here we provide the descriptions of these potentially harmful dinoflagellates cystsin detail to help a better understanding of the morphological characteristics and biogeographic distribution of potentially harmful dinoflagellates. Sediment samples were collected from 51 stations in the southern coastal area, Korea. Viable resting cysts were isolated and induced to excysts, and identification was based on morphological characteristics and molecular phylogenetic positions of the germinated cells. 9 potentially harmful dinoflagellate species were identified: 7 potentially toxic species and 2 potentially bloom-forming species. The resting cysts of Gymnodinium aureolum, which has a smooth, thin wall and many pale lipid globules, were first observed from natural sediments. The presence of resting cysts of potentially harmful dinoflagellates suggests that further research deserves more attention and efforts in HAB monitoring and management.gated in Korean coastal areas, the morphological characteristics of resting cysts of potentially harmful dinoflagellates are still unclear.
