These black and white damsels are found in a variety of anemones in the Marshalls, including Entacmaea quadricolor, Heteractis aurora, H. crispa, H. magnifica, Macrodactyla doreensis, Stichodactyla haddoni and S. mertensii. Usually only the juveniles are associated with anemones; as these damsels get larger, they generally move away from their host anemones. The first two are in Heteractis magnifica.
This one is in a bleached Entacmaea quadricolor.
And on a Stichodactyla mertensii.
