Energy Sources of the Depth-Generalist Mixotrophic Coral Stylophora pistillata
Energy sources of corals, ultimately sunlight and plankton availability, change dramatically from shallow to mesophotic (30–150 m) reefs. Depth-generalist corals, those that occupy both of these two distinct ecosystems, are adapted to cope with such ...
