Abstract:
The invasive freshwater dinoflagellate Ceratium furcoides is extending its distribution in South America with increasing environmental impacts associated with its bloom. We here report two events related to C. furcoides distribution expansion in Uruguay: (1) the main environmental drivers (physical and chemical factors, extreme wind events and zooplankton composition) of the first appearance and bloom of C. furcoides in 20XX in a subtropical eutrophic shallow lake (Lake Blanca, Uruguay); and (2) a fish kill event of Prochilodus lineatus observed during a bloom of C. furcoides in 20XX in a deep eutrophic lake (Puente de las Americas, Uruguay).
Keywords:
Dinoflagellate bloom; Eutrophication; Massive fish mortality; Phytoplankton; Prochilodus lineatus
