Environmental Breviatea harbor mutualistic Arcobacter epibionts [PDF]
The cultivation of Lenisia limosa, a newly discovered breviate protist, symbiotically colonized by relatives of the animal-associated bacterium Arcobacter. This study describes a previously unknown type of mutualistic symbiosis between a newly discovered

Spatial distribution of epibionts on olive ridley sea turtles at Playa Ostional, Costa Rica.
There is a wealth of published information on the epibiont communities of sea turtles, yet many of these studies have exclusively sampled epibionts found only on the carapace.

Epibionts on Arenaeus cribrarius (Brachyura: Portunidae) from Brazil
Mean prevalence and intensity of infestations by epibionts were evaluated in Arenaeus cribrarius (Lamarck, 1818), based on monthly samplings (May/1991 to April/1993), in Ubatuba, Brazil.

Due to the competition for food, space, oxygen and due to their role as diseases vector, epibionts can negatively affect oyster farming. We assessed the efficacy of six methods commonly used for the removal of epibionts from oyster shells during farming.

Different food particle sources in the pearl oyster Pinctada margaritifera and its epibionts
Suspended bivalve culture (e.g. longlines) transfers benthic biomass - including bivalves and various epibionts - toward the water column, creating strong trophic interactions with the planktonic compartment.

Epibionts in artificial collectors / Epibiontes en colectores artificiales
Artificial collectors are tools that explain the settlement dynamics of marine invertebrates. What is known about these in the Caribbean is very limited. In order to identify and quantify the diversity of epibionts in relation to depth, between December, 2015 and August, 2016, cylindrical collectors were suspended on a long line at varying depths.

Diminutive crinoid holdfasts and cemented tests of the foraminifers Psammosphaera and Tolypammina were observed on coarse bioclasts in weathered limestones of the Daleje-Třebotov Formation. Specimens were obtained in 1984 by washing so called “white beds”

Planktivore effects on zooplankton epibiont communities: Epibiont pigmentation effects [PDF]
We observed the development of epibiont communities on freshwater crustacean zooplankton from 12 July–31 August 1991 in three ponds: one with planktivorous fish, a second with planktivorous larval salamanders, and a third with planktivorous fish added midway through the sampling period.
