Arctonoe fragilis (Baird) commensal with the star Evasterias troschelii Stimpson are clearly attracted to their host and can distinguish between water coming from their host and sea-water alone. Arctonoe (pulchra-vittata?) commensal with the cucumber Stichopus are likewise attracted to their host.3. Arctonoe fragilis commensal with Evasterias are not attracted to the non-host star, Pisaster, occurring in the same immediate environment as their host. Arctonoe (pulchra-vittata?) commensal with the cucumber Stichopus are likewise not attracted to the non-host Cucumaria.4.
