Abstract: GenusChurabanaKise, Montenegro & Reimer, 2021 Type species. Churabana kuroshioae Kise, Montenegro & Reimer, 2021. Diagnosis. (modified from the diagnosis given by Kise et al. 2022). Parazoanthidae with obligate symbiotic relationship with Pararete sponges. Preserved polyps 3.0–10.0 mm in height, 2.8–5.0 mm in diameter. Azooxanthellate. Cteniform endodermal marginal musculature. Remarks. We modified the generic diagnosis based on a newly collected specimen of Churabana kuroshioae. This species seems to have host specificity to Pararete species based on this study and Kise et al. (2022), although further investigations are required to confirm this.
