Isaurus duchassaingi is a brachynemid zoanthid that lives solitary or forms small colonies. Tipically it is found on coral formations or rocky shores. An information on its morphology is given by Duerden (1898).The present article gives a short description of the species and some complementary notes on its internal morphology, together with ecological field observations.
