Devonian corals of the Vosges Mountains, France [PDF]

Acta Palaeontologica Polonica
The Saxo-Thuringian Zone of western Europe is a tectonostratigraphic unit that includes Devonian sediments. Usually, the sediments are deep-water siliciclastics and variously affected by regional metamorphism.

Accounting for Intra- and Intergenomic Sequence Variation in Reference Barcodes Improves eDNA Metabarcoding Biodiversity Assessment. [PDF]

Mol Ecol Resour
ABSTRACT Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding can rapidly characterise biodiversity, yet its accuracy and effectiveness are limited by incomplete DNA barcode reference databases. We evaluated how comprehensive reference databases that include sequence variation within genomes (intragenomic) and across individuals and species (intergenomic) improve ...

Fast-evolving mitochondrial DNA in Ceriantharia: a reflection of hexacorallia paraphyly?

PLoS ONE, 2014
The low evolutionary rate of mitochondrial genes in Anthozoa has challenged their utility for phylogenetic and systematic purposes, especially for DNA barcoding.

Evolution of bioluminescence in Anthozoa with emphasis on Octocorallia. [PDF]

Proc Biol Sci
Bioluminescence is a widespread phenomenon that has evolved multiple times across the tree of life, converging among diverse fauna and habitat types. The ubiquity of bioluminescence, particularly in marine environments where it is commonly used for communication and defense, highlights the adaptive value of this trait, though the evolutionary origins ...

Mitochondrial and nuclear genes suggest that stony corals are monophyletic but most families of stony corals are not (Order Scleractinia, Class Anthozoa, Phylum Cnidaria) [PDF]

, 2008
Modern hard corals (Class Hexacorallia; Order Scleractinia) are widely studied because of their fundamental role in reef building and their superb fossil record extending back to the Triassic.

New Records of Cold-Water Corals from Korea [PDF]

Animal Systematics, Evolution and Diversity, 2016
Two cold-water coral taxa, Octocorallia in the class Anthozoa and Stylasteridae in the class Hydrozoa, were identified. Deep-water samples were collected in fishing nets at depths ranging between 20 and 200 m along the coasts of the East Sea in Korea ...
