Explanation:
A toxin produced by the dinoflagellate Dinophysis causes diarrhetic shellfish poisoning (DSP), which results in digestive upset but which is not fatal. Ciguatera is another form of dinoflagellate toxicity in tropical areas caused by eating fish contaminated by toxins of the dinoflagellate Gambierdiscus toxicus.
