Abstract:
Until coral molecular phylogenies were published, the genus Plesiastrea was traditionally part of the family Faviidae and considered by several authors to be closely related to the genus Montastraea. However, genetic data has shown that Plesiastrea versipora, the genus type species, is evolutionarily distinct within the Robust clade of the Scleractinia and does not belong to the large clade grouping most representatives of the families Faviidae, including Montastraea, Mussidae, Merulinidae, Trachyphylliidae, and Pectiniidae. Instead, P. versipora is closely related to non reef-dwelling taxa currently ascribed to the Oculinidae (Cyathelia axillaris) and Caryophylliidae (Trochocyathus efateensis). However, no discussion on the morphologic features of P. versipora compared to other taxa has been published yet. Moreover, no information is available about the phylogenetic placement of Plesiastrea devantieri, the only other species in the genus. The phylogeny of both Plesiastrea species was addressed through molecular analyses (COI and rDNA) and morphological analysis. Morphological differences between the two species included number of septa, cycles of vertical structures in front of the septa and septal micromorphology. On the basis of these data and nuclear and mitochondrial markers, P. devantieri belongs to the Faviidae-Merulinidae-Pectiniidae-Trachyphylliidae clade (Clade XVII sensu Fukami et al., 2008) and is most closely related to Goniastrea aspera and G. palauensis. The type species of the genus Goniastrea, G. retiformis, however, is not closely related to either G. aspera and G. palauensis, or to P. devantieri. Taxonomic implications of these findings and morphologic affinities between the two species and closely related taxa are discussed.

Abstract:
Crude homogenates of animal host tissues stimulate the release of photosynthetic products from symbiotic dinoflagellates isolated from corals and several other invertebrates. It is believed that specific ‘host release factors’ stimulate the symbiotic algae to release water-soluble compounds, chiefly glycerol and amino acids, to the host. Crude host homogenates also contain compounds which sometimes inhibit photosynthesis in isolated algal cells, although this inhibition is not apparent in the intact association. Therefore, use of crude homogenates in translocation experiments may sometimes lead to inconsistent results. We have found that the commercially available synthetic fungicide, clotrimazole (mycosporin), a chemical analogue of naturally occurring mycosporine-like amino acids, can be used as a model for the host release factor of the coral Plesiastrea versipora(Lamarck). Clotrimazole stimulated isolated algal cells from P. versipora to release carbon fixation products to the external medium. Chromatography experiments showed that the released compounds were similar to those found when algae were incubated with crude homogenates of P. versipora. We propose that, in Plesiastrea versipora, clotrimazole may be used as an internal control in experiments using crude host homogenate and in screening partially purified fractions for ‘host factor’ activity. Clotrimazole is the first commercially available compound found to have effects similar to the ‘host factor’ of a coral.

Abstract:
Two new species of the Pyrgomatid barnacle Trevathana are described: Trevathana synthesysae nov. sp., extracted from Plesiastrea versipora from the Indian Ocean Islands Réunion and Mauritius, and Trevathana isfae nov. sp. from a colony of Favia stelligera from French Polynesia, which, until recently, was terra incognita with regard to coral-inhabiting barnacles. The two new species are distinctive by their relatively broad scutum as compared to Trevathana dentatum, their prominent adductor ridge extending beyond the basal margin of the scutum, and their quadrangular tergum.
