observó macrofauna asociada cuyo estatus e importancia
ecológica no han sido estudiados.
Conclusiones: Las especies encontradas no tuvieron varia-
ciones morfológicas con las descritas en otras regiones
similares. Se sugiere la importancia de un estudio dirigido
a evaluar el rol de la fauna asociada con los corales negros,
principalmente de la anémona Nemanthus californicus,
el bivalvo Pteria sterna y el pez halcón narigón Oxyci-
rrhithes typus. Se enfatiza la importancia del Área de
Conservación Guanacaste como sitio de conservación de la
biodiversidad marina.
Palabras clave: Antipatharia; fauna asociada; biodiversi-
dad; pínulas; taxonomía.
