TL;DR: The field surveys and feeding studies have implicated exotic hydrilla and associated epiphytic cyanobacterial species as a link to avian vacuolar myelinopathy (AVM), an emerging avian disease affecting herbivorous waterbirds and their avian predators.

TL;DR: The results suggest that P. piscicida is a common, and normally benign, inhabitant of estuarine waters of the eastern coast of the United States.

TL;DR: The data show the importance of testing multiple strains when assessing the potential for toxicity at the genus or species level, using appropriate culturing techniques and assays.

TL;DR: Observations following the discovery of Kryptoperidinium foliaceum blooms in South Carolina (SC), USA, suggest that a multi-analytical approach, using a standard, minimal set of criteria, should be adopted for determining dinoflagellate species identity and taxonomic placement.

TL;DR: Pfiesteria spp.
