There, it has a central, round opening, surrounded by a series of slim, oval openings arranged in a circle, pointing outwards. Donut, No Worms has a rough, uneven outer texture and is green.   ## Databank Entry   **Donut of worms (tentatively *Raion donut*) without visible worms.**   1. **Normal state**   Just as terrestrial corals contain photosynthetic partners called zooxanthella, the donut contains a population of predatory worms.   2. **Disturbed state**   Just as terrestrial corals sometimes expel their partners when under stress, this donut raion has discharged or killed its population of worms. (Alternatively, they have left in search of a better host.) This may be a reproductive strategy, a defensive reaction to the worms turning on and feeding upon the sponge, or a response to environmental stress.   **Assessment:** unclear how long the donut can survive without its primary food supply. Terrestrial corals survive only days to weeks after bleaching.   *Source: Scan a Donut, No Worms*   ## Gallery  +### In Game+  ![Two Donut, No Worms specimen seen in the Plateaus.](Donut no Worms.png)
