Sequences. See Table 1. Description. Size: Polyps in situ approximately 4–12 mm in diameter when open, and approximately 4–15 mm in height. Morphology: Antipathozoanthus hickmani has approximately 40 bright yellow and/ or red tentacles, with long red, yellow, or cream-colored polyps that extend well clear of the coenenchyme (Figure 1). Tentacles are almost always longer than the expanded oral disk diameter. Cnidae: Basitrichs and microbasic p-mastigophores (often difficult to distinguish), holotrichs (large and medium), spirocysts (see Table 2, Figure 9). Table ļ. Examined zoanthid specimens for new species from the Galapagos Islands, and GenBank Accession Numbers. NA = not available or data not acquired. aSpecimens with the designations such as 03-560 are from 2001-2004 surveys (see Reimer et al. 2008b). Other specimens are from 2007 and have either specimen numbers (e.g. 471) in JDR’s collection, or museum type specimen numbers as given.

Differential diagnosis. Differs from Antipathozoanthus macaronesicus (Ocaña & Brito, 2004) (with regards to distribution; Galapagos as opposed to Cape Verde), coloration (no red or cream colors observed in A. macaronesicus), substrate (Antipathes galapagensis as opposed to Tanacetipathes cavernicola Opresko, 2001). Other morphologically similar and undescribed zoanthids (epizoic on antipatharians, similar sizes, yellowish in color) have been recorded from Madagascar and Japan (specimens in JDR’s collection), although these other specimens were found on different antipatharian species than Antipathozoanthus hickmani, and were never red or cream in color. Antipathozoanthus hickmani is the only zoanthid in the Galápagos found on living Antipathes galapagensis (Table 3). Habitat and distribution. All collected samples from Galapagos were on the black coral Antipathes galapagensis, at depths of 12 m to 35 m. Although A. galapagensis is found throughout the archipelago, Antipathozoanthus hickmani colonies were observed only at Santiago, Floreana, Isabela and Pinzon Islands, and it may be that this genus has a patchy distribution in the Galápagos. A. hickmani is potentially also found at Isla del Coco (Costa Rica) on the same antipatharian species, based on Museo de Zoologia, University of Costa Rica specimen UCR 827, although this has yet to be confirmed with detailed examinations. Biology and associated species. Antipathozoanthus hickmani may cover only a portion of a living Antipathes galapagensis black coral colony, or cover the entire colony, suggesting this species may be parasitic. Some A. hickmani specimens were found on completely dead A. galapagensis colonies or branches. Notes. Previously mentioned in Reimer et al. (2008b, 2010) and Hickman (2008) as Parazoanthus sp.

Colonies may reach sizes of over a meter in diameter.</p> <p> <i>Morphology</i>: <i>Terrazoanthus onoi</i> has bright red or red-brown oral disks and the outer surface of polyps is tan to dark brown, with polyps relatively clear of the coenenchyme. <i>T. onoi</i> has 32 to 40 tentacles that are almost as long as the diameter of the expanded oral disk (Figure 3).</p> <p> <i>Cnidae</i>: Basitrichs and microbasic p-mastigophores (often difficult to distinguish), holotrichs (large, medium, and small), spirocysts (see Table 2, Figure 9).</p> <p> <b>Differential diagnosis.</b> In the Galápagos, <i>Terrazoanthus onoi</i> differs from <i>Parazoanthus darwini</i> and <i>Antipathozoanthus hickmani</i> by substrate preference (rock as opposed to sponges and anthipatharians, respectively), as well as from <i>Terrazoanthus sinnigeri</i> sp. n. (below) by both color (bright red as opposed to brown, white or transparent) and habitat ecology (exposed rock surfaces as opposed to under rocks and rubble). In addition, <i>T. onoi</i> is bigger (oral disk diameter and polyp height) than <i>T. sinnigeri</i>, and forms much larger colonies (Table 3). <i>T. onoi</i> commonly has only basitrichs and microbasic p-mastigophores in its pharynx, and no large or small holotrichs at all, unlike <i>T. sinnigeri</i> (Table 2).</p> <p>Phylogenetically, <i>Terrazoanthus onoi</i> is very closely related to <i>T. sinnigeri</i>, with identical COI and mt 16S rDNA sequences, but consistently differs by four base pairs in ITS-rDNA, and forms a clade separate from <i>T. sinnigeri</i>.</p> <p>An extensive literature search revealed no other described Parazoanthidae species from the Pacific that are non-epizoic and bright red in color. An undescribed zoanthid species inhabiting rock and coral reef substrata from Indonesia often referred to as “yellow polyps” (<i>sensu</i> Sinniger et al. 2005) is likely also a <i>Terrazoanthus</i> sp., but is distinct from <i>T. onoi</i> in terms of color and distribution, and is phylogenetically different.</p> <p> <b>Habitat and distribution.</b> Specimens of <i>Terrazoanthus onoi</i> were found on rock substrate in areas of high current (i.e., the base of large rocks, rock walls, etc.). Colonies were found at Darwin, Marchena, Genovesa, Isabela, Pinzon, Española, and Floreana Islands, and it is likely <i>T. onoi</i> is found throughout the archipelago. This species has been found from the low infra-littoral to depths of over 35 m, and is likely to be at even deeper depths.</p> <p> <b>Biology and associated species.</b> Found on the top surfaces of rocks and biogenic non-living substrate, <i>Terrazoanthus onoi</i> is often found close to sponges, seaweed, and oth- er benthos, but is not epizoic and does not have an association with any particular species.</p> <p> <b>Notes.</b> Previously mentioned in Reimer et al. (2008b, 2010) and Hickman (2008) as <i>Parazoanthus</i> sp. G3, except for specimen MISE 02-27 mentioned below.</p> <p>It should be noted that specimen MISE 02-27 was found to have an ITS-rDNA sequence inconsistent with other <i>Terrazoanthus onoi</i> specimens (Figure 6), although other data (morphology, mt 16S rDNA and COI data) fit well with <i>T. onoi</i>. For these reasons, this specimen has not been conclusively assigned to <i>T. onoi</i> or to the other new <i>Terrazoanthus</i> species below. These results indicate there may be other <i>Terrazoanthus</i> species in the Galápagos that await discovery and description.</p>Published as part of <i>Reimer, James & Fujii, Takuma, 2010, Four new species and one new genus of zoanthids (Cnidaria, Hexacorallia) from the Galapagos Islands, pp. 1-36 in ZooKeys 42 (42)</i> on pages 20-23, DOI: 10.3897/zookeys.42.378, <a href="http://zenodo.org/record/576650">http://zenodo.org/record/576650</a&gt
