Lingulodinium polyedra is a photosynthetic phytoplankton, known for its bioluminescent properties. In southern California, the periodic blooming of these dinoflagellates, known as a red tide, causes local beaches to glow bright blue in the evening as waves disrupt the blooms, causing a bioluminescent chemical reaction. This is thought to ward off predators or perhaps warn that consumption will cause poisoning, as L. polyedra is shown to do damage to shellfish populations if ingested.
