Karlodinium is a genus of athecate dinoflagellates that lives worldwide.{{Cite journal |last1=Müller |first1=Marius N. |last2=Dorantes-Aranda |first2=Juan José |last3=Seger |first3=Andreas |last4=Botana |first4=Marina T. |last5=Brandini |first5=Frederico P. |last6=Hallegraeff |first6=Gustaaf M. |date=2019 |title=Ichthyotoxicity of the Dinoflagellate Karlodinium veneficum in Response to Changes in Seawater pH |journal=Frontiers in Marine Science |volume=6 |doi=10.3389/fmars.2019.00082 |issn=2296-7745 |doi-access=free |url=https://figshare.com/articles/journal_contribution/Ichthyotoxicity_of_the_dinoflagellate_Karlodinium_veneficum_in_response_to_changes_in_seawater_pH/22975856/1/files/40719320.pdf }} They are often toxin producing, and compared to the other members of the Kareniaceae, are fairly small at <8-15 μm diameter. They are also able to form intense algal blooms.{{cite journal | last1=Place | first1=Allen R. | last2=Bowers | first2=Holly A. | last3=Bachvaroff | first3=Tsetvan R. | last4=Adolf | first4=Jason E. | last5=Deeds | first5=Jonathan R. | last6=Sheng | first6=Jian | title=Karlodinium veneficum—The little dinoflagellate with a big bite | journal=Harmful Algae | publisher=Elsevier BV | volume=14 | year=2012 | issn=1568-9883 | doi=10.1016/j.hal.2011.10.021 | pages=179–195}} This species relies of photosynthesis and phagotrphy to grow.{{Cite journal |last1=Place |first1=Allen R. |last2=Bowers |first2=Holly A. |last3=Bachvaroff |first3=Tsetvan R. |last4=Adolf |first4=Jason E. |last5=Deeds |first5=Jonathan R. |last6=Sheng |first6=Jian |date=2012-02-01 |title=Karlodinium veneficum—The little dinoflagellate with a big bite |url=https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1568988311001491 |journal=Harmful Algae |series=Harmful Algae--The requirement for species-specific information |volume=14 |pages=179–195 |doi=10.1016/j.hal.2011.10.021 |issn=1568-9883|url-access=subscription }}
