Complete mitochondrial genomes of two species of Stichopathes Brook, 1889 (Hexacorallia: Antipatharia: Antipathidae) from Rapa Nui (Easter Island) [PDF]
We report the complete mitochondrial genomes of two antipatharian species, Stichopathes sp. SCBUCN-8849 and Stichopathes sp. SCBUCN-8850, collected between 120 and 180 m depth off Rapa Nui (∼ −27.1°, −109.4°).

First record of Stichopathes occidentalis (Gray, 1860) and range extensions of Antipathes atlantica Gray, 1857 (Cnidaria: Anthozoa: Antipatharia) in the southwestern Atlantic Ocean [PDF]
Twenty-one species of black corals have been recorded in the Brazilian Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) to date, distributed mainly at depths greater than 20 m.

Hawaiian black coral (Antipatharia) complete mitochondrial genomes have limited phylogenetic signal for taxonomic resolution of species [PDF]
Most inferences about black coral (Antipatharia) phylogenetics have relied on a handful of molecular markers from PCR-Sanger methods but recently complete mitogenomes are shedding additional light on relationships.

The complete mitochondrial genome of a species of Cirrhipathes de Blainville, 1830 from Kauaʻi, Hawaiʻi (Hexacorallia: Antipatharia) [PDF]
This study reports the first mitogenome from the antipatharian (black coral) genus Cirrhipathes (GenBank accession number ON653414). The 20,452 bp mitochondrial genome of Cirrhipathes cf.

The mitochondrial genome of a sea anemone Bolocera sp. exhibits novel genetic structures potentially involved in adaptation to the deep-sea environment. [PDF]
The deep sea is regarded as the most extensive ecosystem on earth, and the organisms living there survive in an extremely harsh environment. The mitochondrial energy metabolism of some organisms may be different from that of shallow sea species. We uncovered a number of mitochondrial genome features that may provide some clues for Bolocera sp.

Islands in the mud: The South Texas banks provide crucial mesophotic habitat for coral communities
On the continental shelf off the coast of South Texas lie a series of natural hard-bottom structures (rocky outcrops and relic coral-algal reefs) known as the South Texas Banks (STB), which provide critical habitat for benthic organisms and pelagic fish.

Investigation into the Presence of Symbiodiniaceae in Antipatharians (Black Corals)
Here, we report a new broad approach to investigating the presence and density of Symbiodiniaceae cells in corals of the order Antipatharia subclass Hexacorallia, commonly known as black corals.
