这项研究证实了产毒底栖甲藻 Gambierdiscus belizeanus 和 Ostreopsis spp 的存在。在红海中部。据我们所知，这也是沙特阿拉伯沿海水域首次报告这些类群，表明该地区可能发生雪卡鱼中毒（CFP）。在 2012 年和 2013 年进行的实地调查中，从沙特阿拉伯海岸附近的珊瑚礁中收集了总共 100 个 Turbinaria 和 Halimeda 大型藻类样本，并检查了是否存在 Gambierdiscus 和 Ostreopsis，这两种产毒甲藻属在世界各地的珊瑚礁群落中常见。 Gambierdiscus 和 Ostreopsis spp.在低密度下观察到（
This study confirms the presence of the toxigenic benthic dinoflagellates Gambierdiscus belizeanus and Ostreopsis spp. in the central Red Sea. To our knowledge, this is also the first report of these taxa in coastal waters of Saudi Arabia, indicating the potential occurrence of ciguatera fish poisoning (CFP) in that region. During field investigations carried out in 2012 and 2013, a total of 100 Turbinaria and Halimeda macroalgae samples were collected from coral reefs off the Saudi Arabian coast and examined for the presence of Gambierdiscus and Ostreopsis, two toxigenic dinoflagellate genera commonly observed in coral reef communities around the world. Both Gambierdiscus and Ostreopsis spp. were observed at low densities (
