A note on zoogeographic range extension of Endopachys grayi Milne-Edwards & Haime, 1848 (Scleractinia: Dendrophyllidae) from Andaman and Nicobar Islands
The family Dendrophylliidae represents solitary as well as colonial corals with a total of 183 extant valid species under the Order Scleractinia, distributed from littoral to the abyssal depths. During a recent deep-sea survey conducted by FORV Sagar Sampada (FORVSS367) , a specimen of azooxanthellate dendrophylliid i.e . Endopachys grayi Milne-Edwards & Haime, 1848 was collected at the depth of 685 m from Nicobar waters which indicates its range extension to the Andaman and Nicobar Islands in Indo-Pacific region while the previously reported depth range of the species is 37 to 386 m. The present report of E. grayi is a new addition to this archipelago.
期刊介绍:
Started in 1972, this multi-disciplinary journal publishes full papers and short communications. The Indian Journal of Geo-Marine Sciences, issued monthly, is devoted to the publication of communications relating to various facets of research in (i) Marine sciences including marine engineering and marine pollution; (ii) Climate change & (iii) Geosciences i.e. geology, geography and geophysics. IJMS is a multidisciplinary journal in marine sciences and geosciences. Therefore, research and review papers and book reviews of general significance to marine sciences and geosciences which are written clearly and well organized will be given preference.
