Between the Poles: Rethinking Global Patterns in Sea Anemone Biodiversity

open access: yesJournal 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.

Diversity of zoanthids (anthozoa: hexacorallia) on Hawaiian seamounts: description of the Hawaiian gold coral and additional zoanthids. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The Hawaiian gold coral has a history of exploitation from the deep slopes and seamounts of the Hawaiian Islands as one of the precious corals commercialised in the jewellery industry.

Impact of CO2‐Induced Aquatic Acidification on Environmental DNA and RNA Shedding and Persistence

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 4, July–August 2025.
We conducted mesocosm experiments to determine the shedding and decay rate constants of eDNA and eRNA in Pacific oysters (Crassostrea gigas) at various partial CO2 pressures in seawater. To our knowledge, this is the first study manipulating seawater pH using CO2.

A Baseline for the Conservation of the Native and Protected Centrostephanus longispinus (Philippi, 1845) and the Management of the Invasive Diadema setosum (Leske, 1778) (Echinoidea: Diadematidae) in the Mediterranean Sea

open access: yesAquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 35, Issue 5, Page 1-12, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Centrostephanus longispinus (Echinodermata: Echinoidea) is an endemic and protected sea urchin species of the Mediterranean Sea. Another long‐spined sea urchin, Diadema setosum from the Red Sea, entered the Mediterranean Sea in 2006 and rapidly spread throughout the eastern basin. As a keystone competitive grazer, D.

Zooxanthellate zoantharians (Anthozoa: Hexacorallia: Zoantharia: Brachycnemina) in the northern Red Sea [PDF]

open access: yesMarine Biodiversity, 2017
The Red Sea was one of the first areas of the Indo-Pacific to be investigated by marine taxonomists, and the literature on suborder Brachycnemina (Anthozoa: Hexacorallia: Zoantharia) for this region dates from the early nineteenth century. However, in the last 100 years there has been only one focused study on this group in the Red Sea.

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

open access: yesAnimal 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 ...

The property of larval cells of the scleractinian coral, Acropora tenuis, deduced from in vitro cultured cells

open access: yesDevelopment, Growth &Differentiation, Volume 67, Issue 3, Page 119-135, April 2025.
Using antibodies raised against in vitro cultured cells, we determined the property of coral larval cells. Neuronal cells, ectoderm cells, and endoderm cells were characterized. Abstract In previous studies, we have established approximately 15 cultured cell‐lines derived from planula larvae of Acropora tenuis.

Species Diversity of Shallow Water Zoanthids (Cnidaria: Anthozoa: Hexacorallia) in Florida [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Marine Biology, 2012
Shallow water zooxanthellate zoanthids are a common component of the coral reef ecosystems of the Caribbean. Despite this, their species diversity remains poorly understood. In this study, collectedPalythoa, Zoanthus, Isaurus, andTerrazoanthusspecimens from the waters of Florida were phylogenetically examined to obtain a better understanding of ...

Linking Water to the Bottom: eDNA Study of Benthic Invertebrates and Invasive Species in the Venice Lagoon

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 2, March/April 2025.
This study used environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding of superficial water samples to assess benthic invertebrate biodiversity in the Venice Lagoon. Sampling from surface water revealed 80 taxonomic units, mostly benthic species, including several invasive ones, with significant spatial and seasonal variations in community composition.

Hypoxia threatens coral and sea anemone early life stages

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 70, Issue 3, Page 684-699, March 2025.
Abstract Seawater hypoxia is increasing globally and can drive declines in organismal performance across a wide range of marine taxa. However, the effects of hypoxia on early life stages (e.g., larvae and juveniles) are largely unknown, and it is unclear how evolutionary and life histories may influence these outcomes.
