Ophiodaphne scripta (Ophiuroidea: Amphiuridae), a brittle star exhibiting sexual dimorphism and epibiosis: first record from India, with notes on adaptations, systematics and distribution

Marine Biodiversity, 2013
Ophiodaphne scripta (Koehler, 1904) is an amphiurid brittle star exhibiting an unusual form of conspicuous sexual dimorphism and epibiosis. The males are much smaller and exist as epibionts on the larger female. These male–female pairs, attached mouth-to-mouth, are in turn epibionts on cake urchins such as Echinodiscus auritus Leske, 1778, attaching ...

Symbioses in Amphipholis squamata (Echinodermata, Ophiuroidea, Amphiuridae): geographical variation of infestation and effect of symbionts on the host's light production

International Journal for Parasitology, 1998
Populations of the polychromatic and bioluminescent species Amphipholis squamata from eight locations were examined for internal and external symbionts. At three locations (two in the United Kingdom and one in Papua New Guinea), no symbionts were present, while four species were recovered from the remaining locations: Cancerilla tubulata and ...
