先前从日本报道的Zoantharia（Anthozoa：Hexacorallia）中的虫黄藻成员包括Zoanthidae科的Zoanthus属和Isaurus属以及Sphenopidae科的Palythoa属。特别是，Zoanthus 和 Palythoa 在从日本南部冲绳岛到北部伊豆群岛（三宅岛）的浅热带和亚热带水域中很常见。先前的研究已经记录了冲绳、南西群岛、九州、本州中部（和歌山）和伊豆群岛的虫黄藻类动物的出现，但迄今为止尚未对四国水域中出现的动物黄藻类动物进行过正式调查。本研究调查的区域分为两个区域：高知南太平洋沿岸地区的虫黄藻多样性较高（8种），而丰后海峡地区的水域则较低（5种）。这里列出的大多数观察到的物种是在极低潮线以下约 5 m 的深度发现的。大多数调查地点都发现了 Zoanthus 和 Palythoa，而 Isaurus 仅限于太平洋沿岸的地点。四国南部的虫黄藻在浅层硬质基质海洋生境中最为丰富，这些生境具有发达的沿海阶地，以及持续大量的波浪活动、海流和光照水平。
Zooxanthellate members of the order Zoantharia (Anthozoa: Hexacorallia) previously reported from Japan consist of the genera Zoanthus and Isaurus in the family Zoanthidae as well as the genus Palythoa in the family Sphenopidae. In particular, Zoanthus and Palythoa are common in shallow tropical and sub-tropical waters from the southern limits of Japan in Okinawa to their northern limits in the Izu Islands (Miyakejima Island). Previous studies have documented the occurrence of zooxanthellate zoanthids in Okinawa, the Nansei Islands, Kyushu, mid-Honshu (Wakayama), and the Izu Islands, but until now no formal survey of zoanthids occurring in the waters of Shikoku has been conducted. The area surveyed in this study was divided into two regions: zooxanthellate zoanthid diversity was higher (8 species) along the southern Pacific Coast region of Kochi, and lower in waters of the Bungo Strait region (5 species). The majority of observed species listed here were found below the extreme low tide line to depths of approximately 5 m. Zoanthus and Palythoa were found in most sites surveyed, while Isaurus was limited to sites on the Pacific coast. Zooxanthellate zoanthids in southern Shikoku are most abundant in shallow hard substrate marine habitats with a well-developed coastal terrace, and consistent high amounts of wave activity, current, and light levels.
分子证据表明，Palythoa 属和 Protopalythoa 属的物种（Anthozoa：Hexacorallia）是同属的

尽管 Zoanthus aff.vietnamensis 和 Zoanthus kuroshio（Anthozoa ： Hexacorallia）之间具有密切的遗传相关性，但形态变异程度很高。
