Abstract: Potentially toxic and harmful phytoplankton species along the Turkish coasts of the southern Black Sea, Sea of Mar- mara, eastern Aegean Sea, and the northeastern Mediterranean were detected between 1980–2002. Twenty-one potentially toxic microalgae were recorded: three cyanophytes that can cause hepatotoxic effects; fourteen dinoflagellates with a po- tential to cause Diarrhetic Shellfish Poisoning, Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning, Azaspiracid Poisoning, and yessotoxin-like poisoning symptoms; three diatoms, which can cause Amnesic Shellfish Poisoning; and a raphidophyte species. Harm- ful but non-toxic blooms were very frequent in the eutrophic Black Sea, Sea of Marmara, and the eastern Aegean coasts.
