<em>SYMBIODINIUM MICROADRIATICUM</em> FREUDENTHAL. S. GOREAUII SP. NOV., S. KAWAGUTH SP. NOV. AND S. PILOSUM SP. NOV.: GYMNODINIOID DINOFLAGELLATE SYMBIONTS OF MARINE INVERTEBRATES.

- Abstract
The use of several independent biochemical, physiological, morphological, and behavioral assays has resulted in the reassessment of the taxonomy of the gymnodinioid symbionts of marine invertebrates which belong to the genus Symbiodinium Frendenthal (Dinophyceae). The formal description of the type species S. microadriaticum Freudenthal is augmented, and three new species are introduced; S. goreauii, symbiotic with the Caribbean sea anemone Ragactis lucida, S. kawagutii, harbored by the Hawanan stony coral Montipora verrucosa: and S. pilosum. inhabiting the Caribbean zonthid Zoanthus sociatus.
