Polyphyly and hidden species among Hawaiʻi’s dominant mesophotic coral genera, Leptoseris and Pavona (Scleractinia: Agariciidae) [PDF]

, 2013
Widespread polyphyly in stony corals (order Scleractinia) has prompted efforts to revise their systematics through approaches that integrate molecular and micromorphological evidence. To date, these approaches have not been comprehensively applied to the

Metaproteome Analysis of Short‐Term Thermal Stress in Three Sympatric Coral Species Reveals Divergent Host Responses

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
Short‐term thermal stress triggers distinct molecular responses in three sympatric coral species with contrasting thermal resilience. Proteomic and metabolomic profiling reveal both species‐specific and limited shared pathways underlying these stress responses.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Montipora aequituberculata (Scleractinia, Acroporidae) [PDF]

Mitochondrial DNA Part B, 2017
The complete mitogenome of the hexacorallia, Montipora aequituberculata has been amplified and sequenced. The mitogenome consists of 17,886 bp, with 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 2 transfer RNA genes and a control region. It has been observed that ND5 gene is split into two parts by a large fragment of genes, which commonly presented ...

Environmental DNA Reveals Diverse and Depth‐Stratified Biodiversity in East Indian Ocean Submarine Canyons

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Environmental DNA metabarcoding reveals diverse animal communities across Cape Range and Cloates submarine canyons off Western Australia. Two assays detected 234 species spanning 125 families across 11 phyla, highlighting canyon‐specific assemblages and demonstrating the value of eDNA for establishing biodiversity baselines in remote and poorly ...

Overview of the taxonomy of zooxanthellate Scleractinia. [PDF]

Zoological journal of the Linnean Society, 2013
Coral taxonomy has entered a historical phase where nomenclatorial uncertainty is rapidly increasing. The fundamental cause is mandatory adherence to historical monographs that lack essential information of all sorts, and also to type specimens, if they exist at all, that are commonly unrecognizable fragments or are uncharacteristic of the species they

Differential expression of three galaxin-related genes during settlement and metamorphosis in the scleractinian coral Acropora millepora [PDF]

, 2016
BACKGROUND: The coral skeleton consists of CaCO3 deposited upon an organic matrix primarily as aragonite. Currently galaxin, from Galaxea fascicularis, is the only soluble protein component of the organic matrix that has been characterized from a coral.

The Messinian Salinity Crisis Between Italy and Albania: The Peri‐Adriatic Depression and Southern Adriatic Basin Records

Basin Research, Volume 38, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Basin‐scale correlation of Messinian salinity crisis (MSC) deposits across the Apennine–Albanide foreland basin system integrating outcrop and subsurface data. ABSTRACT We reconstructed the geological evolution of the Albanides during the Messinian salinity crisis (MSC), based on the integration of outcrop and subsurface data from both onshore (peri ...

Age-related shifts in bacterial diversity in a reef coral [PDF]

, 2015
This study investigated the relationship between microbial communities in differently sized colonies of the massive coral Coelastrea aspera at Phuket, Thailand where colony size could be used as a proxy for age.

Critical knowledge gaps in the conservation and restoration of cold‐water corals

Restoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Introduction Critical knowledge gaps hamper effective conservation of threatened cold‐water coral (CWC) ecosystems, facing cumulative anthropogenic and climate pressures. This review provides a strategic roadmap for urgent, informed intervention.

Setting evolutionary-based conservation priorities for a phylogenetically data-poor taxonomic group (Scleractinia) [PDF]

, 2015
Given the current extinction crisis coupled with the shortfall in funding, there is a pressing need to establish species conservation priorities. The prioritization of phylogenetic diversity and evolutionary distinctiveness is one approach; however ...
