Peneroplis Planatus
''Peneroplis'' is an extant genus of benthic Foraminifera in the family Peneroplidae. The genus is also represented in the fossil record. ''Peneroplis'' dwell in upper photic zone.

Soritoidea
The Soritoidea is a group of miliolid benthic foraminifera with porcellaneous tests. They take on a variety of growth forms but typically have many chambers. Some soritids can grow over a centimeter across, huge for protists. All Soritoidea keep algal endosymbionts, which may be what allows them to achieve such large sizes. Some species have red algal symbionts, some have green algal symbionts, and others have dinoflagellate symbionts. These larger symbiont-bearing foraminifera are typically found in the oligotroph An oligotroph is an organism that can live in an environment that offers very low levels of nutrients. They may be contrasted with copiotrophs, which prefer nutritionally rich environments. Oligotrophs are characterized by slow growth, low rates o ...ic waters of the tropics. The species '' Marginopora vertebralis'' occupies similar habitats to reef-building corals and may have an ecological relationship with the corals, serving as an alternate host to the zooxanth ...
