• Recreational fishing depredation and associated behaviors involving common bottlenose dolphins ( Tursiops truncatus ) in Sarasota Bay, Florida (2011, background): “K. brevis produces a suite of brevetoxins (neurotoxins), which kill many organisms through inhalation, trophic transfer, or both (Tester et al. 2000, Flewelling et al. 2005, Fire et al. 2008).”
• New trends in marine chemical ecology (2006, background): “Some copepod species also seem capable of concentrating toxins in their body tissues (Tester et al. 2000; Doucette et al. 2005), as occurs in bivalve molluscs, and ingested toxins may then act as defenses to deter predation by fish and other zooplanktivorous consumers (Ianora et al. 2004b).”
• Growth, feeding and ecological roles of the mixotrophic and heterotrophic dinoflagellates in marine planktonic food webs (2010, background): “Some copepods are known to transfer phytotoxins sometimes from toxic MTDs to higher level organisms such as fish, seabirds, and marine mammals (e.g. Tester et al. 2000).”
• The Effects of Harmful Algal Blooms on Aquatic Organisms (2002, background): “Brevetoxin is thought to be absorbed directly across the gill membranes of fish (Abbott et al., 1975), although ingestion is another documented route (Tester et al., 2000).”
• Accumulation of red tide toxins in larger size fractions of zooplankton assemblages from Massachusetts Bay, USA (2000, background): “There have been few subsequent field studies on vectorial transport of dinoflagellate toxins to upperlevel consumers via zooplankton (Tester et al. 2000).”
