TL;DR: For the first time, Prochloron cells were found associated with an animal other than a colonial ascidian, namely, a synaptid holothurian, Snaptula lamperti as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: It is reported that, for the first time, Prochloron cells were found associated with an animal other than a colonial ascidian-namely, a synaptid holothurian, Snaptula lamperti. This occurance brings into question the supposedly obligate nature of the association of this problematic algae with didemnids and their allies.
