dc.description.abstractAlong the Pacific coast of North America sea anemones of the genus Anthopleura are dominant intertidal coelenterates. They occur as solitary tide pool inhabitants (A . xanthogrammica) or as aggregations carpeting firm substrates (A. elegantissima). One of the unique features of these species is their invariable symbiotic association with unicellular Dinophyceae. These brown or yellow-brown algae, known as zooxanthellae, occur intracellularly in the gastrodermal tissues of the host anemone (Muscatine, 1961) .
