The occurrence and frequency of harmful algal blooms have become a significant problem in Indonesia's coastal waters since 1991. This article aims to thoroughly analyze the diversity of algal species involved in these harmful algal blooms (HABs). It highlights that some algae, such as toxic species, can produce dangerous toxins, while others, such as non-toxic algae, remain harmless. This article reviews research studies that describe the occurrence, frequency, and causative types of bloom events in several contaminated coastal regions of Indonesia. The blooms had many consequences for fisheries, the aquatic environment, the economy, and public health. Among the identified species, Pyrodinium bahamense var. compressum is known for its high toxicity. The most common taxa contributing to bloom tragedy are Chaetoceros, Noctiluca, and Skeletonema. The study recognizes that human-induced nutrient enrichment is a major and significant factor in triggering the bloom phenomena. The paper recommends various management strategies and further research initiatives to prevent and reduce the impacts of HABs in Indonesia.
