A dramatic northward range expansion of a Red Sea soft coral in the Mediterranean Sea
Abstract Historically isolated from tropical influences, the Mediterranean Sea underwent drastic changes, including the Lessepsian migration facilitated by the opening of the Suez Canal, connecting the Red Sea to the Mediterranean Sea. Here, we report on the discovery of a thriving and lush population of an Indo‐Pacific soft coral in the transforming ...

Underwater surveys reveal deep-sea corals in newly explored regions of the southwest Atlantic
Deep-sea coral distribution and composition are unknown in much of the global ocean, but repurposing ocean industry surveys can fill that gap. In Santos Basin, southeast Brazil, areas (241–963 m depth) were surveyed during seven Petrobras cruises ...

A case of modular phenotypic plasticity in the depth gradient for the gorgonian coral Antillogorgia bipinnata (Cnidaria: Octocorallia) [PDF]
Background: Phenotypic plasticity, as a phenotypic response induced by the environment, has been proposed as a key factor in the evolutionary history of corals. A significant number of octocoral species show high phenotypic variation, exhibiting a strong

In vivo injection of exogenous molecules into octocorals: Application to the study of calcification
Abstract In vivo studies of the effects of molecules of interest, such as hormones or xenobiotics on corals, are essential to uncover their effects on coral biological processes. However, exposure to such molecules is very challenging in aquarium systems due to the duration of exposure, the high cost of the compounds, their quantity, and their ...

Global status, impacts, and management of rocky temperate mesophotic ecosystems
Abstract The ecology and function of rocky temperate mesophotic ecosystems (TMEs) remain poorly understood globally despite their widespread distribution. They typically occur at 20–150 m (the limit of photosynthesis), and on rocky substratum they support rich benthic communities and mobile fauna.

Molecular and mineral responses of corals grown under artificial Calcite Sea conditions
Abstract The formation of skeletal structures composed of different calcium carbonate polymorphs (e.g. aragonite and calcite) appears to be both biologically and environmentally regulated. Among environmental factors influencing aragonite and calcite precipitation, changes in seawater conditions—primarily in the molar ratio of magnesium and calcium ...

A survey of the genera Sarcodictyon Forbes, 1847, and rolandia Lacaze-Duthiers, 1900, (anthozoa: octocorallia) in the North-eastern Atlantic and the Mediterranean [PDF]
Sarcodictyon catenatum Forbes, 1847, is a common species in the Atlantic and the Mediterranean. However, often it has been mistaken for Rolandia coralloides Lacaze-Duthiers, 1900.
