(2015)Muricea is an amphi-American genus. Verrill proposed dividing the species from the Pacific Ocean into three genera and established the genus Eumuricea for five eastern Pacific species with tubular calyces. Eumuricea is ... -
Eastern Pacific Coral Reef Provinces, Coral Community Structure and Composition: An Overview
(2017)Advances in our knowledge of eastern tropical Pacific (ETP) coral reef biogeography and ecology during the past two decades are briefly reviewed. Fifteen ETP subregions are recognized, including mainland and island localities ... -
Homoplasious colony morphology and mito-nuclear phylogenetic discordance among Eastern Pacific octocorals
(2016)Octocorals are a diverse and ecologically important group of cnidarians. However, the phylogenetic relationships of many octocoral groups are not well understood and are based mostly on mitochondrial sequence data. In ... -

Variation in the whole mitogenome of reef-building Porites corals
(2016)The study of complete mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) revealed different gene rearrangements, highly variable markers, and delineated clades that have aided the understanding of the evolutionary history in corals. In ...
