Towards a revision of the bamboo corals (Octocorallia): Part 4, delineating the family Keratoisididae.

Zootaxa, 2022
The systematics of bamboo corals of the Family Keratoisididae are evaluated using both DNA sequences and morphological data. Sequence data were obtained from 398 specimens, from which 77 unique haplotypes representing the mtMutS and 18S gene regions were

Ancient endosymbiont‐mediated transmission of a selfish gene provides a model for overcoming barriers to gene transfer into animal mitochondrial genomes

Bioessays, 2022
In contrast to bilaterian animals, non‐bilaterian mitochondrial genomes contain atypical genes, often attributed to horizontal gene transfer (HGT) as an ad hoc explanation.

Toward a revision of the bamboo corals: Part 3, deconstructing the Family Isididae.

Zootaxa, 2021
Bamboo corals are distinguished from most other octocorals by an articulated skeleton. The nodes are proteinaceous and sclerite-free while the internodes are composed of non-scleritic calcium carbonate. This articulation of the skeleton was thought to be

An integrated morphological–molecular approach reveals new insights on the systematics of the octocoral Telestula humilis (Thomson, 1927) (Octocorallia : Alcyonacea : Clavulariidae)

Invertebrate systematics, 2021
. Telestula humilis (Thomson, 1927) is a rare deep-sea stoloniferan octocoral distributed in the eastern Atlantic. Here we compared seven putative colonies of this species collected off Spain with the lectotype from the Oceanographic Museum of Monaco and

Revision of the genus Plexaurella Kölliker, 1865 (Anthozoa: Octocorallia) and resurrection of Plexaurellidae Verrill, 1912 new rank

Invertebrate systematics, 2021
. The current knowledge on the diversity of the genus Plexaurella is based on a series of dated revisions, often with no examination of types. Although being common octocorals in western Atlantic reefs, there is no consensus on an exact number of valid ...
