Udoteaceae
Udoteaceae is a family of green algae, in the order Bryopsidales. Description Udoteaceae is a family of green algae that belongs to the order Bryopsidales. Udoteaceae are most abundant in reef ecosystems as it serves an important ecological role as a primary producer, contributor to carbonate fluxes, and it serves as protection or food for other marine organisms. Udoteaceae is the most morphologically complex family belonging to the order Bryopsidales. Along with its high morphological complexity, Udoteaceae also has high species diversity. There are fourteen genera, eight extant, belonging to the family Udoteaceae, however only four are officially accepted. There are twenty-four species belonging to these genera, however because genetic information on Udoteaceae is limited, these species are classified primarily from morphological features. Udoteaceae’s structure is siphonous and composed of a giant, multinucleate tubular cell. Udoteaceae contains taxa that are either ...

Green Coral Goby
''Gobiodon histrio'', the Broad-barred goby, is a species of goby native to the Indian Ocean from the Red Sea to the western Pacific Ocean to southern Japan, Samoa and the Great Barrier Reef. This species is a reef dweller, being found at depths of from . It can reach a length of TL. This species can also be found in the aquarium trade. This fish produces a toxin that deters predators. When disturbed, it releases compounds that inhibit the locomotion of other fish. At high enough concentrations, the toxin causes the predator to lose equilibrium and tip over. It takes part in a mutualistic relationship with a species of coral, ''Acropora nasuta''. When the coral is damaged by toxic ''Chlorodesmis ''Chlorodesmis'' is a genus of green algae in the family Udoteaceae.
