The invasion of the azooxanthellate coral Tubastraea (Scleractinia: Dendrophylliidae) throughout the world: history, pathways and vectors (2016, background): “It also favors artificial substrata (Mangelli and Creed 2012) and often occurs on dock pilings, buoys, cave ceilings, and on the undersides of large rocks (Cairns 2000).”
Climate change and coral reef bleaching: An ecological assessment of long-term impacts, recovery trends and future outlook (2008, background): “(Cairns, 2000), and it is probable that the migration of this species to higher latitudes is a result of its expansion into favorable previously unoccupied habitats.”
Substratum preference during recruitment of two invasive alien corals onto shallow-subtidal tropical rocky shores. (2007, unknown): “This azooxanthellate often occurs on ship bottoms, dock pilings, buoys and attached to man-made objects (Cairns 2000, De Paula & Creed 2004, Fenner & Banks 2004, Sammarco et al. 2004), and has invaded the Gulf of Mexico, Florida and the Caribbean (Fenner & Banks 2004), expanding its range from the I”
Change in tropical rocky shore communities due to an alien coral invasion (2011, background): “…is probably the most widespread invasive alien coral reported to date and 93 Mar Ecol Prog Ser 438: 85–96, 201194 occurs on ship bottoms, dock pilings, buoys, oil platforms and other human-made objects (Cairns 2000, Fenner 2001, Fenner & Banks 2004, Paula & Creed 2004, Sammarco et al. 2004).”
Orange Cup Coral Tubastraea coccinea invades Florida and the Flower Garden Banks, Northwestern Gulf of Mexico (2004, background): “Alternatively, it may have come from the Cape Verde Islands or Gulf of Guinea in the eastern Atlantic, where it is also known (Laborel 1974; Cairns 2000).”
Reproductive ecology of the azooxanthellate coral Tubastraea coccinea in the Equatorial Eastern Pacific: Part V. Dendrophylliidae (2008, background): “Cairns (1994) noted that T. coccinea is a pantropical cosmopolite, widespread throughout all tropical waters including a temperate region in Japan (Cairns 2000).”
Effects of the alien coral Tubastraea tagusensis on native coral assemblages in a southwestern Atlantic coral reef (2016, background): “The ahermatypic coral Tubastraea (Scleractinia, Dendrophylliidae), commonly known as cup coral, is a native genus from the Indo-Pacific region likely introduced by ships and/or oil platforms in the Atlantic Ocean in the 1940s (Cairns 2000; Castro and Pires 2001; Fenner 2001; Fenner and Banks 2004).”
