A new species of black coral, represented by two specimens collected 738 m and 1604 m deep off Puerto Rico and Hawaii, respectively, is recognized in the family Schizopathidae. See its description here: doi.org/10.3897/zookey…
On #EndangeredSpeciesDay, spotlight on the Desmophyllum pertusum.
Listed as Vulnerable to extinction, this deep-sea coral faces threats from:
🎣 Bottom trawling
🌊 Ocean acidification
🌀 Climate change
Let’s protect all species, even those found far beneath the surface.
Our new paper, led by Andrea Quattrini. We describe a new species of Paraspharasclera from the Gulf. First detected by eDNA analysis! This is the first report of the genus within the Atlantic Ocean.

We at @Researchirel were delighted to work with #Macnas to bring Alf to Dublin. He prompted conversations about habitat destruction, and the wonders we are still discovering about how newts can regenerate body parts #ScienceWeek

Just submitted my final PhD chapter 🙈. Thank you @DrShmoo and @quattrinia. 2024 looks bright for Bamboo coral genomics.
How just to finish this new genus description 🙈
This is so sad but unfortunately the truth for many non nationals in the city. I have friends who were afraid to go out into the city on Saturday night. Too afraid to be on the street by themselves without an "Irish looking" person with them. It broke my heart
