Zooxanthellae is the common name of the broader Symbiodinium genus, but specifically is the brown to yellow algae that lives in coral’s gastrodermis (3). Zooxanthellae is a term for any dinoflagellate that participates in symbiosis with sponges, coral, clams, mollusks, flatworms, jellyfish, etc (1,2). It is an algal protist that is best known for its symbiotic relationship with marine coral. Zooxanthellae usually occur in extremely high densities on their host, enhancing the constant exchange of nutrients between them and their host. | |||
