Laboratory experiments were conducted to clarify the mechanism of the mass mortality of pearl oysters (Pinctada fucata) associated with the red tide dinoflagellate Heterocapsa circularisquama such as occurred in Ago Bay, Japan, in 1992. Two-month-old pearl oysters were treated with various densities of H. circularisquama, Heterosigma akashiwo and a sterile control. Immediately after the exposure to H. circularisquama cells, juvenile pearl oysters rapidly contracted their mantles and closed their shell valves. Then, they contracted their gills and experienced irregular heartbeat patterns until the heart stopped permanently. The mortality of the juveniles was closely correlated with the cell density of H. circularisquama. The LD50was approximately 20 000 cells ml−1after 24 h and 10000 cells ml−1after 48 h from the start of the experiments. However, in the presence of either H. akashiwo at 100 000 cells ml−1or supernatant of H. circularisquama culture, juvenile pearl oysters did not die within 72 h. During the red tide in Ago Bay, 1992, the maximum cell density of H. circularisquama reached over 80 000 cells ml−1. Therefore, we consider that the mass mortality of cultured pearl oysters during this red tide was caused by the direct action of H. circularisquama cells.
