Cryptic species and hybridisation in corals: challenges and opportunities for conservation and restoration by Riginos, Cynthia, Popovic, Iva, Meziere, Zoe, Garcia, Vhon, Byrne, Ilha, Howitt, Samantha M., Ishida, Hisatake, Bairos-Novak, Kevin, Humanes, Adriana, Scharfenstein, Hugo, Richards, Thomas, Briggs, Ethan, Clark, Vanessa, Lei, Chuan, Khan, Mariam, Prata, Katharine E.

“…This hidden biodiversity creates challenges for coral conservation and restoration planning that are not well appreciated, including hiding true population declines, biasing estimates for species’ phenotypic breadth, overestimating the resilience of species to stressors, yielding uncertainty in evolutionary dynamics inferred from past studies, and implying that reproductive barriers may limit mating between local and translocated corals. …”
