Environmental Breviatea harbour mutualistic Arcobacter epibionts [PDF]
Nature, 2016 Breviatea form a lineage of free living, unicellular protists, distantly related to animals and fungi. This lineage emerged almost one billion years ago, when the oceanic oxygen content was low, and extant Breviatea have evolved or retained an anaerobic lifestyle. Here we report the cultivation of Lenisia limosa, gen. et sp.

Epibiont Assemblages on Nesting Hawksbill Turtles Show Site-Specificity in the Persian Gulf
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Sea turtle epibionts can provide insights into the hosts' habitat use. However, at present, there is a lack of information on sea turtle epibiont communities in many locations worldwide. Here, we describe the epibiont communities of 46 hawksbill turtles (

High Diversity and Abundance of Foraminifera Associated with Mediterranean Benthic Red Algae Mats
Diversity, 2021 The Mediterranean Sea comprises habitats such as Posidonia oceanica seagrass meadows that exhibit high associated biodiversity of sessile organisms. Recent pilot research indicates that benthic mats formed by the scarcely investigated fleshy red alga ...

A survey of epibiont hydrozoans on Sargassum
PeerJ, 2023 The brown alga Sargassum provides a natural substrate occupied by hydrozoans in shallow marine waters. A global count in 2007 listed 39 epibiotic species of Hydrozoa growing on Sargassum, but more studies have been published since, therefore, an update is timely, particularly due to the increased abundance of Sargassum in the Caribbean.

Bryozoan-macroalgal interactions:do epibionts benefit? [PDF]
Marine Ecology Progress Series, 1996 Many bryozoans, exemplified by species of Membranipora, are obligate epiphytes. We used laboratory and field experiments to ascertain whether colonies of Membranipora isabelleana benefit from contact with the fronds and exudates of Lessonia trabeculata, their natural substratum in central Chile.

Suctorian ciliates (Ciliophora, Suctorea) as epibionts of stream-dwelling aquatic beetles (Coleoptera) and water mites (Acari: Hydrachnidia) in the southwestern Palaearctic region [PDF]
, 2012 Based on original data from recent research, numerous new records of the suctorian species living as epibionts on streamdwelling aquatic beetles (Coleoptera) and water mites (Acari, Hydrachnidia) in the southwestern Palaearctic area are given.
