根据文献记载和新的调查资料，对马里亚纲的非裂隙类珊瑚虫进行了综述。共记录6种虫纲动物、8种珊瑚形态科动物、26种猕猴科动物、3种珊瑚类、10种抗病虫类和79种章鱼。关岛的珊瑚动物群、珊瑚变形虫动物群和浅水柳珊瑚动物群的特征相对较好，尽管许多当地公认的形式仍有待物种识别。软珊瑚在分类学上得到了较好的调查，尽管由于野外鉴定的困难，关于许多物种的信息仍然有限。虽然体型较大的猕猴类动物是众所周知的，但对小型物种的研究仍然很少。天牛目动物仍然鲜为人知，而反病态动物的记录是基于马里亚纳群岛南部的一次深水调查。丰富的深水八角珊瑚动物群已被采集，但仍有待研究。
The non-scleractinian Anthozoa of the Marianas are reviewed based on literature records and new surveys. Six zoanthids, 8 corallimorpharians, 26 actiniarians, 3 ceriantharians, 10 antipatharians, and 79 octocorals are recorded. The zoanthid, corallimorpharian, and shallow water gorgonian faunas of Guam are relatively well character- ized, although many locally recognized forms remain to be identified to species. Soft corals are relatively well surveyed taxonomically, although information about many species remains limited, due to difficulty of field identification. While large-bodied actiniarians are well known, small species remain little studied. Ceriantharians remain poorly known, while antipatharian records are based on a single deep-water survey in the southern Marianas. A rich deep-water octocoral fauna has been collected, but remains to be studied.
