Abstract
⺠Fish kill mechanisms by C. marina. ⺠A significant elevation of blood osmolality is the universal response in moribund fish exposed to C. marina. ⺠Both respiratory impairment and osmotic distress are important mechanisms leading to fish kill by C. marina. ⺠The susceptibility of marine fish both interspecies and intraspecies to C. marina inversely related to their tolerance to hypoxia.
