Applying Deep Learning to Quantify Drivers of Long‐Term Ecological Change in a Swedish Marine Protected Area

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 9, September 2025.
We applied an object‐detection model to archived videos from 1997‐2023 of a submarine rock wall in a Swedish marine protected area. We modeled depth distributions and abundance trends of 17 invertebrate taxa. Most taxa resided at deeper wall sections and abundance trends were generally positive, but heat sensitivity was associated with population ...

DNA Barcoding revealing the occurrence of Isarachnanthus (Cnidaria; Anthozoa; eriantharia) in Cape Verde

Papéis Avulsos de Zoologia
The occurrence of Isarachnanthus Carlgren, 1924 (Cnidaria: Anthozoa: Ceriantharia) specimens in Cape Verde Islands is recorded. Identification of the tube anemone species Isarachnanthus maderensis (Johnson, 1861) was possible based on DNA Barcoding.

Diversity and evolution of coral fluorescent proteins. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2008
GFP-like fluorescent proteins (FPs) are the key color determinants in reef-building corals (class Anthozoa, order Scleractinia) and are of considerable interest as potential genetically encoded fluorescent labels.

Mediterranean octocoral populations exposed to marine heatwaves are less resilient to disturbances

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 94, Issue 8, Page 1528-1541, August 2025.
We demonstrate that marine heat waves decrease the resilience of Mediterranean octocorals to further disturbances. Abstract The effects of climate change are now more pervasive than ever. Marine ecosystems have been particularly impacted by climate change, with marine heatwaves (MHWs) being a strong driver of mass mortality events.

Systematics of the Hexacorallia (Cnidaria: Anthozoa) [PDF]

Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2003
The composition of and relationships among higher-level groups within the anthozoan subclass Hexacorallia ( = Zoantharia) has been controversial because independent analyses of anatomy, life history, ultrastructure, and molecular sequences have failed to provide a consistent framework for drawing taxonomic boundaries or under- standing phylogenetic ...

The Phylum Cnidaria: A Review of Phylogenetic Patterns and Diversity 300 Years After Linnaeus [PDF]

, 2007
Systema Naturae includes representatives of every major lineage of the animal phylum Cnidaria. However, Linnaeus did not classify the members of the phylum as is now done, and the diversity of the group is not well represented.

Between the Poles: Rethinking Global Patterns in Sea Anemone Biodiversity

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 8, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim To assess global sampling coverage of sea anemones and global species richness across four different spatial resolutions, and analyse these along latitudinal gradients to investigate true bimodality and the extent to which these patterns have been influenced by uneven sampling efforts. Location The study encompasses a global scale.

New Records of Two Genera Leptoseris and Phyllangia (Anthozoa: Hexacorallia: Scleractinia) from Korea

Animal Systematics, Evolution and Diversity, 2015
Two scleractinian species are newly recorded in Korea: Leptoseris mycetoseroides Wells, 1954 and Phyllangia hayamaensis (Eguchi, 1968). The two genera Leptoseris Milne Edwards and Haime, 1849 and Phyllangia Milne Edwards and Haime, 1848 are also newly ...

GIS based mapping of zoanthids along Saurashtra coast, Gujarat, India [PDF]

, 2017
Zooxanthellate zoanthids (or. Zoantharia) are the third largest order of Hexacorallia and are an integral part of the coral reef ecosystem. Worldwide coral reefs will continue to suffer under the synergistic effect of anthropogenic agent and climate ...
