ABSTRACT
Morphometric analyses based on three-dimensional reconstruction of the nuclei of four different strains of the symbiotic dinoflagellate Symbiodinium microadriaticum, the algae that inhabit corals, giant clams, and other marine invertebrates, revealed marked differences in chromosome numbers and chromosome volumes. The differences are not consistent with different ploidy states within the same species, but can most easily be interpreted as indicating different species.

An outbreak of violence among inpatients coincident with the beginning of a residency training program is described. The phenomenon is viewed as an example of covert staff disagreement resulting in the scapegoating of black patients. Suggestions are made as to how to avoid the occurrence of similar phenomena through a process of re-education of ward staff.

This paper, through the use of the case study, presents the idea that the beginning psychiatrist must often depend on his own native intuition and emphathic skills during his early clinical work. A case is presented in detail to show that amide the anxiety, freshness, and inexperience typifying a beginning psychiatrist, a psychotherapeutic treatment that benefits both the patient and the psychiatrist can be carried out. The growth of the patient and the therapist is described over the course of a three-month hospitalization.
