Mediterranean black coral communities

2019
Remotely operated vehicle (ROV) investigations of the Mediterranean deep continental shelf and bathyal zone have provided, in the last decade, a large amount of data concerning an enigmatic group of anthozoans: the black corals. Taxonomic investigations as well as ecological and biological studies contributed to unveil the diversity, population ...

Forensic analysis of black coral (Order Antipatharia)

Forensic Science International, 2012
Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), discriminate analysis, X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (XRF), and stereoscopic microscopy were used to separate black coral forensic evidence items from similarly appearing items manufactured from plastics, bovid keratin, and mangrove wood.

Black Corals (Anthozoa: Antipatharia) from the Southwestern Atlantic

Zootaxa, 2019
Black corals (Cnidaria: Hexacorallia: Antipatharia) occur in all oceans of the globe, especially at depths greater than 50 m. However, their richness is underestimated due to the scarcity of studies on this group, especially in deep waters. The south Atlantic is one of the most depauperate regions in terms of our knowledge of antipatharians. Herein, we

The Black Band Disease of Atlantic Reef Corals.

Marine Ecology, 1983
Abstract.Some reef building corals in the western Atlantic are susceptible to an infection known as black band disease that is caused by the cyanophyte (cyanobacterium)Phormidium corallyticumRützler& Santavy. Field observations on the barrier reef of Belize and on reefs of the Bermuda platform indicate the disease is fairly common in susceptible ...

Feeding mechanisms in black corals (Antipatharia)

Journal of Zoology, 1978
Feeding in the Antipatharia is very similar to that of reef corals. Food capture is accomplished by the tentacles with their nematocysts, by mucus nets and strands, by directional ciliary currents, and by mesenterial filaments.

Five new polar sterols from the black coral Antipathes subpinnata

Steroids, 1991
In addition to the known (20S,22E)-cholesta-1,4,22-triene-16 beta,18, 20-triol-3-one, (20S,22E)-24-methyl-cholesta-1,4,22-triene-16 beta,18,20-triol-3-one, and (20S,22E)-24-methylcholesta-4,22-diene-16 beta,18,20-triol-3-one, the methanol extract of the Mediterranean anthozoan Antipathes subpinnata was shown to contain five new sterols: (20S,22E ...
