A total of 40 harmful algal blooms (HABs) were recorded between December 2016 and May 2017. These were associated with the anomalous increase in sea surface temperature during the 2017 coastal El Niño (2017 CEN). Dinoflagellates predominated with 14 species, followed by flagellates and ciliates (1 species each). Frequent blooms of Noctiluca scintillans, Dinophysis acuminata, and Prorocentrum cordatum, among others, were observed in Paita and Chimbote, associated with SST peaks of 27.5, 26.0, and 29.0 °C, respectively. Heterosigma akashiwo, Akashiwo sanguinea, and Heterocapsa sp. were recorded in Callao and Pisco, with SST peaks of 25.9, 25.0, and 26.6 °C, respectively. For H. akashiwo and Dinophysis sp., their abundances
were significantly correlated with SST.
