Coral Reefs at the Northernmost Tip of Borneo: An Assessment of Scleractinian Species Richness Patterns and Benthic Reef Assemblages
The coral reefs at the northernmost tip of Sabah, Borneo will be established under a marine protected area: the Tun Mustapha Park (TMP) by the end of 2015. This area is a passage where the Sulu Sea meets the South China Sea and it is situated at the border of the area of maximum marine biodiversity, the Coral Triangle. The TMP includes fringing and patch reefs established on a relatively shallo...
متن کاملPocillopora aliciae: a new species of scleractinian coral (Scleractinia, Pocilloporidae) from subtropical Eastern Australia.
Lack of morphological features of diagnostic value and high levels of environmental phenotypic plasticity obscure species boundaries for most taxa in the genus Pocillopora Lamarck, 1816 and complicate the definition of taxonomically distinct units. Species of the genus are colonial, generally ramose, rarely massive or encrusting and mostly hermatypic; corallite arrangement is plocoid, septa are...
متن کاملPrevalent endosymbiont zonation shapes the depth distributions of scleractinian coral species
Bathymetric distributions of photosynthetic marine invertebrate species are relatively well studied, however the importance of symbiont zonation (i.e. hosting of distinct algal endosymbiont communities over depth) in determining these depth distributions still remains unclear. Here, we assess the prevalence of symbiont zonation in tropical scleractinian corals by genotyping the Symbiodinium of ...
متن کاملCoral Larval Rearing in Singapore: Observations on Spawning Timing, Larval Development and Settlement of Two Common Scleractinian Coral Species
— Small scale rearing of scleractinian coral larvae for experimental purposes has been practised for decades, but it is only in recent years that large scale larval rearing has been used as a means of providing corals for reef rehabilitation. This study aimed to develop optimal methods for rearing sexually propagated scleractinian corals from the broadcast spawning species Acropora hyacinthus a...
متن کاملHeterotrophy in the Mediterranean symbiotic coral Cladocora caespitosa: comparison with two other scleractinian species
This experimental study assessed the grazing rates of the Mediterranean symbiotic coral Cladocora caespitosa on the 4 main food sources available in its natural environment: detrital particulate organic matter (DPOM) and pico-, nano-, and microzooplankton. These rates were compared to the rates of 2 other scleractinian symbiotic species, the Mediterranean coral Oculina patagonica and the tropic...
