Description Cell size: 18–37 μm long, 14–35 μm wide, broadly oval and very dorso-ventrally flattened. ‘Small’ and ‘big’ cells occurring at the same time. Epicone sub-hemispherical to broadly conical, hypocone slightly bilobed. Cingulum slightly pre-median and displaced 1/9 to 1/4 of the cell length. Sulcus slightly invading epicone and widening toward the antapex. Ten to twenty chloroplasts, brown-yellow in colour are scattered to the cell periphery. Nucleus ellipsoidal to reniform, located in the hypocone left lobe. Apical groove thick, extending 1/3 down the dorsal side of the epicone (Fukuyo et al., 1990). In 1965 during toxic blooms in Japan Karenia mikimotoi was first called Gymnodinium type ‘65’. It was later renamed Gymnodinium nagasakiense until the genus Karenia was erected (Hansen et al., 2000; Partensky et al., 1988; Takayama and Adachi, 1984). From Lassus et al. 2016. [details]

Harmful effect Fish and invertebrate mortality. Cytotoxic polyethers, named Gymnocin-A and Gymnocin-B, have been isolated from Japanese cultured material [details]

status Until very recently this species has been confused with the non-toxic species Gymnodinium aureolum (syn.: Gyrodinium aureolum). [details]
