Species and population genomic differentiation in Pocillopora corals (Cnidaria, Hexacorallia) [PDF]
Genetica, 2022 Correctly delimiting species and populations is a prerequisite for studies of connectivity, adaptation and conservation. Genomic data are particularly useful to test species differentiation for organisms with few informative morphological characters or low discrimination of cytoplasmic markers, as in Scleractinians.

Shallow-water black corals (Cnidaria: Anthozoa: Hexacorallia: Antipatharia) from SW Madagascar
Zootaxa, 2020 Antipatharians, also known as black corals, represent a small group of anthozoan hexacorallians found in all oceans of the world. They are generally considered a deep-water taxon; however, some of the most diverse communities are known from tropical shallow waters.

Description of a new species of black coral in the family Aphanipathidae (Anthozoa, Antipatharia) from Puerto Rico [PDF]
ZooKeys, 2023 Black corals (Anthozoa: Antipatharia) are an anthozoan lineage in the class Hexacorallia that occur across a wide range of habitats from the tropics to the poles and from surface waters to depths deeper than 8000 m.

On the paradox of thriving cold‐water coral reefs in the food‐limited deep sea
Biological Reviews, Volume 98, Issue 5, Page 1768-1795, October 2023., 2023 ABSTRACT The deep sea is amongst the most food‐limited habitats on Earth, as only a small fraction (<4%) of the surface primary production is exported below 200 m water depth. Here, cold‐water coral (CWC) reefs form oases of life: their biodiversity compares with tropical coral reefs, their biomass and metabolic activity exceed other deep‐sea ...
