Fused embryos and pre-metamorphic conjoined larvae in a broadcast spawning reef coral
Fusion of embryos or larvae prior to metamorphosis is rarely known to date in colonial marine organisms. Here, we document for the first time that the embryos of the broadcast spawning coral Platygyra daedalea could fuse during blastulation and further develop into conjoined larvae, and the settlement of conjoined larvae immediately resulted in inborn juvenile colonies. Fusion of embryos might ...
متن کاملSpatial and temporal distribution of larvae of coral reef fishes in northern Red Sea, Egypt
The larval community of coral reef fishes in the Red Sea was studied in coastal and offshore sites to determine the effects of the exposure to waves and currents and the distance from the shore in structuring the larval fish community. Plankton sampling from inshore and offshore sites and the exposed and sheltered sides of the reefs resulted in the collection of 2048 larvae representing 49 diff...

متن کاملChemical immobilisation and satellite tagging of free-living southern cassowaries.
BACKGROUND The southern cassowary (Casuarius casuarius johnsonii) attains 1.8 m in height and over 80 kg in weight. These large birds are equipped with large claws and, although not a direct threat to humans, they have caused serious injury to handlers and members of the public. METHODS AND RESULTS This study describes chemical immobilisation, restraint, transport and post-monitoring (satelli...
متن کاملGenotyping individual amphimedon embryos, larvae, and adults.
INTRODUCTIONThe distribution of Amphimedon queenslandica is patchy on coral reefs in the Great Barrier Reef, with small, localized populations detected in shallow, still water reef-flat environments. A. queenslandica is a spermcast spawner, in which fertilization occurs internally. Sperm presumably originate from neighboring reproductive individuals within the population. The ability to genotyp...
