A deep-sea slant on the molecular phylogeny of the Scleractinia

open access: yesMolecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2004
Lophelia pertusa and Madrepora oculata are azooxanthellate corals with nearly cosmopolitan distributions. They form cold-water reefs in the upper bathyal zone on continental margins and offshore banks [A.D. Rogers, Int. Rev. Hydrobiol. 84 (1999) 315]. Lophelia is classified in the family Caryophylliidae and Madrepora in the family Oculinidae, both on ...

The complete mitochondrial genome of Montipora efflorescens (Scleractinia: Acroporidae) [PDF]

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA Part B, 2020
The complete mitogenome of the Sclreractinia, Montipora efflorescens Bernard, 1897 was sequenced for the first time. It had 17,887 bp, with 13 protein-coding genes, and two rRNA and two tRNA genes. Composition of M. efflorescens mitogenome was identical to that of typical Scleractinians.

210Pb- 226Ra chronology reveals rapid growth rate of Madrepora oculata and Lophelia pertusa on world's largest cold-water coral reef [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Here we show the use of the 210Pb- 226Ra excess method to determine the growth rate of two corals from the world's largest known cold-water coral reef, Røst Reef, north of the Arctic circle off Norway.

Climate Change Drives Bathymetric Shifts in Taxonomic and Trait Diversity of Deep‐Sea Benthic Communities

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 31, Issue 8, August 2025.
This study uses modeling techniques to predict the characteristics of deep‐water coral communities under climate scenarios. It reveals that climate change will drive shifts of many deep‐water corals to deeper waters, leading to major changes in biodiversity and ecosystem functions of deep‐water coral communities.

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

open access: yes, 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

Five new coexisting species of copepod crustaceans of the genus Spaniomolgus (Poecilostomatoida: Rhynchomolgidae), symbionts of the stony coral Stylophorapistillata (Scleractinia) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Spaniomolgus is a symbiotic genus of copepods of the poecilostomatoid family Rhynchomolgidae and is known to be associated with shallow-water reef-building hermatypic corals.
