Recovery of corals a decade after a bleaching event in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (2008, methodology): “Each 0.25-m 2 quadrat was examined using 50 randomly placed points, and the fauna underlying each point were identiWed to the lowest possible taxa (Veron 2000).”
Effects of acidified seawater on early life stages of scleractinian corals (Genus Acropora) (2009, background): “The genus Acropora is one of the most widespread, abundant, and species rich (113–180 species) of coral genera on Pacific coral reefs [26, 27].”
Sexual production of corals for reef restoration in the Anthropocene (2020, background): “species of hermatypic scleractinians (Veron 2000), and 4 general patterns have emerged: (1) hermaphroditic broadcast spawning; (2) hermaphroditic brooding; (3) gonochoric broadcast spawning; and (4) gonochoric brooding (Fadlallah 1983, Harrison 1985, 2011,”
Experimental biology of coral reef ecosystems (2004, background): “Presently there are approximately 1300 species of scleractinian corals (Veron, 1995, 2000) that have been identified primarily by morphological characters (e.g., corallite structure).”
Symbiont diversity in scleractinian corals from tropical reefs and subtropical non-reef communities in Taiwan (2005, background): “This current, in combination with the effect of sea surface temperature limits, has divided the hermatypic corals in these areas into three groups: tropical reefs, non-reefal communities, and high-latitude outlying populations (Veron and Minchin 1992; Veron 1993, 1995, 2000).”
Modelling present and climate-shifted distribution of marine fishes and invertebrates. (2008, background): “Coral reefs occur in areas with sea water temperature between 18 o C to 30 o C (Veron 2000).”
Effects of benthic algae on the replenishment of corals and the implications for the resilience of coral reefs (2008, background): “Approximately 800 species of corals have been taxonomically identified worldwide (Veron 2001).”
Towards a phylogenetic classification of reef corals: the Indo‐Pacific genera Merulina, Goniastrea and Scapophyllia (Scleractinia, Merulinidae) (2014, unknown): “ampliata (Veron 2000).”
Debating phylogenetic relationships of the scleractinian Psammocora: molecular and morphological evidences (2007, background): “Anomastraea irregularis - - - - - - s syw nal description by Head (1983), leave no doubt on the fact that the species belongs to the Siderastreidae.”
Large-area imaging reveals biologically driven non-random spatial patterns of corals at a remote reef (2017, methodology): “…Merulinidae Hydnophora rigida Branching Veron (2013) Faviidae Leptastrea pruinosa Encrusting Veron (2013) Faviidae Leptastrea purpurea Encrusting Veron (2013) Faviidae Leptastrea transversa Encrusting Veron (2013) Faviidae Leptoria phrygia Submassive Veron (2013) Agariciidae Leptoseris…”
Variation in the structure of epifaunal invertebrate assemblages among coral hosts (2010, background): “There are currently *165,000 described species of reef invertebrates other than corals (Ruppert et al. 2004; Gordon and Bock 2007) compared to 4,000 species of fishes (Choat and Bellwood 1991; Lieske and Myers 1994; Bellwood et al. 2003) and 700 species of corals (Veron 2000; Hughes et al. 2002).”
Interactive effects of ocean acidification and temperature on two scleractinian corals from Moorea, French Polynesia (2012, background): “Given the importance of acroporid corals on Pacific reefs (Veron, 2000), this genus should be targeted for further investigations of the effects of OA.”
Effect of light and feeding on the fatty acid and sterol composition of zooxanthellae and host tissue isolated from the scleractinian coral Turbinaria reniformis (2008, background): “Members of Turbinaria species usually live in turbid coastal areas (Veron 2000), and are supposed to rely mainly on heterotrophy.”
Bleaching, energetics, and coral mortality risk: Effects of temperature, light, and sediment regime (2007, background): “We used Acropora intermedia, one of the most abundant and widespread species in the Indo-Pacific (Wallace 1999), as our study species.”
Blind to morphology: genetics identifies several widespread ecologically common species and few endemics among Indo‐Pacific cauliflower corals (Pocillopora, Scleractinia) (2013, methodology): “It occurs in shallow-water habitats throughout the Indo-Pacific and the Red Sea, where colony aggregations provide important habitat for numerous fish and invertebrate species (Veron & Pichon, 1976; Veron, 2000).”
