In the non-native <em>Iguana</em>, two long head-bobs (>1.0 s) separated by a highly variable pause (0.1 – 2.8 s) are followed by a series of 3–7 (up to 9) rapid head bobs (<0.5 s), is followed by one phase always with two longer. In native <em>I. delicatissima,</em> the DAP is always initiated with a vibratory gular movement of the extended dewlap in <em>I. delicatissima</em>, but not in the non-native <em>Iguana</em>. Duration of the DAP sequence is significantly shorter in non-native <em>Iguana,</em> always beginning with one singular long head bob (>1.5 s) followed by 3–6 more rapid head bobs. In addition, we observed significant among individual variation in all aspects of the DAP studied, indicating the potential for natural selection to further act on head-bob displays in the non-native and native species.

One of the crucial issues in the host-symbiont interactions is the parasites’ feeding mode. Does the parasite/symbiont use the host’s tissues for nutrition, steal food from the host’s digestive system, or take food directly from the environment? However, most of the parasitism in corals is endosymbiotic (endoparasitic). Their trophic interactions are difficult to identify since they only occur in intact associations. This work uses stable isotope analysis (SIA) of carbon and nitrogen and morphological analysis to study the trophic relationship between the crustacean endoparasites, the Ascothoracida (genera <em>Baccalaureus, Sessilogoga</em>, and <em>Zibrowia</em>) and their various coral hosts ranging from Zoantharia (<em>Palythoa</em>) to Antipatharia (<em>Antipathes</em>), and Scleractinia (<em>Dendrophyllia</em>). The hosts belong to different coral taxa and obtain food from different sources, reflected in their stable isotope values. The SIA, supported by the morphological analysis, suggests that the <em>Zibrowia</em> parasite feeds directly on its <em>Dendrophyllia</em> host. <em>Sessilogoga</em> retains vagility within and around the black coral colony. It has typical generalized piercing mouth parts with numerous teeth and denticles. <em>Sessilogoga</em> may use antipatharian tissues for food directly as well as sucks food fluids from the host’s gastrovascular system. There is no clear trophic shift trend between <em>Palythoa</em> and its parasite <em>Baccalaureus</em>. Such differences exclude the possibility of the parasite feeding predominantly on its host’s tissues and suggest a broad spectrum of food sources.
