Alexandrium (genus)
''Alexandrium'' is a genus of dinoflagellates. It contains some of the dinoflagellate species most harmful to humans, because it produces toxic harmful algal blooms (HAB) that cause paralytic shellfish poisoning (PSP) in humans. There are about 30 species of ''Alexandrium'' that form a clade, defined primarily on morphological characters in their thecal plates. Introduction The group was not well-defined in the past and thus, due to interest of its toxic behaviour, people have revised the group through formal tabulation and usage of molecular markers such as the toxic gene, stx4A, to better understand not just the relationship between each species; but more importantly, to tell something about the spread and barriers to the bloom. Even if, much is known about the life cycles related to the blooms, much is still unknown as to how each life stage is triggered and transitions to the next stage. Predation and parasitism have proven to be great barriers for population growth. Lear ...

Alexandrium Acatenella
Alexandreion (Greek), or Alexandrium (Latin), called Sartaba in the Mishna and Talmud and Qarn Sartaba in Arabic, was an ancient hilltop fortress constructed by the Hasmoneans between Scythopolis and Jerusalem on a pointy barren hill towering over the Jordan Valley from the west. It was likely named after Hasmonean king Alexander Jannæus (104-77 BCE). Name The fortress called "Alexandreion" in Greek, simplified to "Alexandrion" (and Latinised as "Alexandrium"), is mentioned by Josephus in his ''Antiquities of the Jews''. It was mentioned in the Mishna and Talmud as "Sartaba" and is now called "Qarn Sartabe" (lit. "Horn of Sartabe") in Arabic.Abraham Schalit, ''König Herodes. Der Mann und sein Werk.'' Walter de Gruyter Inc., Studia Judaica, 2001, p. 12, footnote 40. German: "Josephus, AJ, XIV, 3, 4 (Par. 49).

Alexandrium Tamarense
''Alexandrium tamarense'' is a species of dinoflagellates known to produce saxitoxin, a neurotoxin which causes the human illness clinically known as paralytic shellfish poisoning (PSP). Multiple species of phytoplankton are known to produce saxitoxin, including at least 10 other species from the genus ''Alexandrium''. Recent molecular work shows that this species belongs to the ''Alexandrium tamarense'' complex (Atama complex, including ''A. tamarense,'' ''Alexandrium fundyense ''Alexandrium fundyense'' is a species of dinoflagellates.

Alexandrium Monilatum
''Alexandrium monilatum'' is a species of armored, photosynthetic, marine dinoflagellates. It produces toxins that, when present in high concentrations as "red tides", can kill fish and reduce growth rates of shellfish. Distribution and habitat ''Alexandrium monilatum'' is a planktonic species found in tropical to warm temperate coastal seas and estuaries of the Americas. The species description is based on material from the Indian River Lagoon on the Atlantic Coast of Florida. Description ''Alexandrium monilatum'' are armored or thecate dinoflagellates with an outer cell wall covered with cellulose plates. ''A. monilatum'' is wider at the cingulum or equatorial girdle than it is tall, and it commonly joins into chains of from two to sixteen individuals, with chains as long as 32 cells in calm seas. The cingulum or groove halfway between the top and bottom of the organism's single cell is where the pair of flagella are situated. To form chains, ''A. monilatum'' cells exude a glu ...
