• Blind to morphology: genetics identifies several widespread ecologically common species and few endemics among Indo‐Pacific cauliflower corals (Pocillopora, Scleractinia) (2013, background): “…their evolutionary relationships, rather than strictly employing morphological features (Lopez et al., 1999; Medina et al., 1999; Fukami et al., 2004; Benzoni et al., 2007, 2010; Stefani et al., 2008; Eytan et al., 2009; Forsman et al., 2009, 2010; Huang et al., 2011; Pinz on & LaJeunesse, 2011).”
• A phylogeny reconstruction of the Dendrophylliidae (Cnidaria, Scleractinia) based on molecular and micromorphological criteria, and its ecological implications (2014, result): “…studies based on fine-scale morphology of the skeleton, rather than macromorphology, provided support to molecular evidence (Cuif et al. 2003; Benzoni et al. 2007, 2010, 2011, 2012a,b; Budd & Stolarski 2009, 2011; Gittenberger et al. 2011; Janiszewska et al. 2011; Stefani et al. 2011;…”
• A molecularly based phylogeny reconstruction of mushroom corals (Scleractinia: Fungiidae) with taxonomic consequences and evolutionary implications for life history traits (2011, background): “…taxonomic levels, analyses combining molecular with microstructural and micromorphological characters prove to be more helpful in our understanding of the scleractinian evolution (Stolarski and Roniewicz, 2001, Benzoni et al., 2007, 2010; Budd and Stolarski, 2009; Budd et al., 2010, present study).”
• The new systematics of scleractinia: Integrating molecular and morphological evidence (2016, background): “In particular, boundaries among Psammocora species were clarified through a series of rigorous molecular and morphological analyses (Stefani et al. 2008a, b; Benzoni et al. 2007, 2010), which saw 24 nominal species reorganised as seven valid species—P. albopicta, P. contigua, P. digitata, P. haimian”
