of haemolytic compounds by C. polylepis. C. polylepis is not typically toxic at the concentrations commonly found in the region, however certain environmental conditions such as strong stratification with a warm surface layer and low salinity following a winter featuring high amounts of nitrogen run-off increasing the N:P ratio is believed to have led to the successful C. plylepis bloom. It is also thought that the production of these toxic compounds limited
