| | mortalité brutale | Explanation:
I didn't find anywhere anything near "crash floraison"; I don't think 'bloom' here means floraison rather spreading around or so (like prolifération). The phenomenon is well known as such in the e.g. ecological literature.
You might want to put the english and/or the latin term in brackets. Good luck! |
