The existence of this system simplifies the interpretation of previous data on the way the symbiosis functions. For example, Yonge (16) drew attention to the need to regulate the numbers of zoo- xanthellae that reproduce in the siphonal mantle. Yonge hypothesized that the algae are culled from the siphonal mantle by amoebocytes, wherein they are digested, and.
