Reproductive and Larval Biology of Acanthaster planci (L.) in Great Barrier Reef Waters
Lucas, J.S.
Mean oocyte diameter and abundance of spermatozoa varied with gonad index. Oogenesis was very rapid in November and December, and ovaries contained a single mode of mature oocytes in December. Oocytes and spermatozoa were shed during the short breeding season in mid-summer when water temperature was about 28°C and optimal for larval survival. There was no evidence of shedding at any other time, although at least a small proportion of starfish in all samples had some mature gametes.
Larvae were reared from hatching at five temperatures-24, 26, 28, 30, and 32°C, and at three salinities-30, 32.5, and 35%. Survival at day 8 was highest in the lowest salinity and at the medial temperature, 28°C. No larvae developed to brachiolaria at 24 or 32°C. Larval development and metamorphosis were completed at 28°C in a minimum of 17 days. Development was completed at 26%, but not at 22% salinity. Larval temperature requirements may limit the southern distribution of A . planci and the salinity responses of larvae will be important in northern Great Barrier Reef waters.

Effect of the Green Fluorescent Pigment on the Productivity of the Reef Corals
Kawaguti, S.
The green fluorescent pigment is found only in the ectodermal cells. It is most brilliant when the coral polyps are fully expanded and when they are exposed to bright sunshine. Under an electron microscope the pigment appears as various distributions of dense spherical bodies of 0.2 μ or less in diameter. It is easily dissolved in distilled water.
The pigment solution is green in reflected light but pink in transmitted light. Its absorption spectrum shows a strong absorption in the ultraviolet region with a sharp maximum at 330 mμ. Fluorescence spectroscopy indicates that the pigment emits green light (ranging 450-510 mμ) when it is activated by light of 380 mμ. The same phenomenon is observed also in the intact green coral.
This fact suggests that the harmful ultraviolet light is converted into light useful for the photosynthesis of zooxanthellae in the endoderm.
