Larvae of Hydractinia echinata, a colonial marine hydroid, can be triggered experimentally to undergo metamorphosis into polyps. The efficiency of induction is density-dependent: a high larval density allows fewer larvae to metamorphose than a low density. Culture medium of metamorphosing larvae was
Lipophilic inducers of larval settlement and metamorphosis of Pseudocentrotus depressus and Anthocidaris crassispina, two commercially important sea urchin species in Japan, were isolated from the foliose coralline red alga Corallina pilulifera (collected in 1990 near Saga, Japan) and identified, La
