• Overview of the conservation status of Mediterranean anthozoa (2017, background): “Despite all these regulations, the increased reports of illegal fishing (e.g. Dounas et al. 2010; Tsounis et al. 2006; Rossi and Gili 2007; Santangelo et al. 2014) and the endangered status of C.”
• Low connectivity and declining genetic variability along a depth gradient in Corallium rubrum populations (2011, background): “Indeed, previous studies showed that the reproductive potential is severely diminished in harvested populations (Tsounis et al. 2006b; Santangelo et al. 2007; Bramanti et al. 2009).”
• Impacts of a Regional, Multi-Year, Multi-Species Coral Disease Outbreak in Southeast Florida (2018, background): “Previously determined relationships between colony size and fecundity suggest that our observed decreases in LTA could lead to reductions in fecundity (Connell, 1973; Szmant-Froelich, 1985; Ward, 1995; Tsounis et al., 2006).”
• Population structure of an exploited benthic cnidarian: the case study of red coral (Corallium rubrum L.) (2006, background): “Future work may confirm initial indications that the reproductive potential of such distorted populations appears to be severely diminished (see Tsounis et al. 2006 ).”

• Spatial variability in reproductive cycle of the gorgonians Paramuricea clavata and Eunicella singularis (Anthozoa, Octocorallia) in the Western Mediterranean Sea (2007, background): “In the Mediterranean Sea, a similar trend is reported for the octocoral Corallium rubrum where sex ratio is biased to female colonies near Livorno (Italy) (Santangelo et al. 2003), while is 1:1 in Costa Brava (Spain) populations ( Tsounis et al. 2006 ).”
