Ancient Hybridisation Fuelled Diversification in Acropora Corals

Molecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 22, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Introgression is the infiltration or flow of genes from one species to another through hybridisation followed by backcrossing. This may lead to incorrect phylogenetic reconstruction or divergence‐time estimation. Acropora is a dominant genus of reef‐building corals; however, whether this group has an introgression history before their ...

The Phylum Cnidaria: A Review of Phylogenetic Patterns and Diversity 300 Years After Linnaeus [PDF]

, 2007
Systema Naturae includes representatives of every major lineage of the animal phylum Cnidaria. However, Linnaeus did not classify the members of the phylum as is now done, and the diversity of the group is not well represented.

Long‐term community dynamics are heterogeneous between fringing‐ and fore‐reef habitats on an Indo‐Pacific coral reef

Ecosphere, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Benthic community structure on present‐day coral reefs is often described as rapidly degrading, yet such summative statements do not capture the effects of spatial heterogeneity in communities. We focus on Moorea, French Polynesia, where the fore reef has shown high ecological resilience in recent decades, and ask whether the adjacent fringing

Remoteness Is Not a Silver Bullet for Mediating Local Human Stressors on Tropical Benthic Communities

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 31, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Tropical coral reefs are at the forefront of the current triple planetary crisis of climate change, pollution, and biodiversity loss. While geographic remoteness is considered to shield reefs from local human pressures, and potentially aid in combating adverse climate change impacts, recent evidence from shallow reefs (0–30 m) to support ...
