• Survey of deep-dwelling red coral (Corallium rubrum) populations at Cap de Creus (NW Mediterranean) (2008, background): “Red coral in the deeper area (120–230 m depth) seems to grow in low abundance, similar to deep sea and Antarctic cnidarians ( Orejas et al. 2002; Mortensen and Buhl-Mortensen 2004; Stone 2006).”
• The Antarctic-Magellan connection: Macrobenthos ecology on the shelf and upper slope, a progress report (2005, background): “Various early colonisers were identified: colonial ascidians (Synoicium), bryozoans (Cellaria, Cellarinella), the stalked sponge Stylocordyla, the solitary ascidian Molgula, the gorgonians Primnoisis, Ainigmaptilon and the polychaete Pista (Gutt et al., 1996; Arntz and Gutt, 1999, Summary Review; Ba”
• Spatial distribution patterns of the gorgonians Eunicella singularis, Paramuricea clavata, and Leptogorgia sarmentosa (Cape of Creus, Northwestern Mediterranean Sea) (2011, background): “1995; Mortensen and BuhlMortensen 2004) and polar areas (Orejas et al. 2002) demonstrated a much lower occurrence and abundance of gorgonians in those regions.”
• Coral habitat in the Aleutian Islands of Alaska: depth distribution, fine-scale species associations, and fisheries interactions (2006, background): “The mean density of the gorgonian Ainigmaptilon antarcticum was 0.12 colonies m 2 in the Weddell Sea, Antarctica (Orejas et al. 2002).”
• Size and spatial structure in deep versus shallow populations of the Mediterranean gorgonian Eunicella singularis (Cap de Creus, northwestern Mediterranean Sea) (2011, background): “This size structure is considered the result of past pulses in recruitment (Grigg 1977; Lasker 1991) and has commonly been reported for gorgonian species from tropical waters (Jorda ´n-Dahlgren 1989; Yoshioka 1994; Toledo-Herna ´ndez et al. 2007), deep waters ( Mortensen and Buhl-Mortensen 2005; Wa”
• Role of small-plankton communities in the diet of two Antarctic octocorals (Primnoisis antarctica and Primnoella sp.) (2003, background): “Additionally, the high reproduction rates of octocorals in Antarctic waters are comparable to those from other latitudes (Orejas et al. 2002), indicating that other planktonic components must be consumed by these organisms in order to meet their energy demands.”
• Sexual reproduction in octocorals (2011, background): “115 0 >12 1.2 Orejas et al 2006 Fannyella rossii 2 2a 2a Antarctica 71 cold A G B 460 1.5 Orejas et al 2002;Orejas et al. 2006 Fannyella spinosa 2 2a Antarctica 71 cold A G B 300 1.4 Orejas et al 2006 Peltastisis sp. 2 2a Antarctica 70* cold A ?”
• Effects of spatial variability and colony size on the reproductive output and gonadal development cycle of the Mediterranean red coral (Corallium rubrum L.) (2006, background): “1995a; Eunicella singularis, Weinberg and Weinberg 1979), and other tropical and Antarctic gorgonians show the same reproductive strategy (Kinzie 1974; Orejas et al. 2002).”
