Deep down on a Caribbean reef: lower mesophotic depths harbor a specialized coral-endosymbiont community
The composition, ecology and environmental conditions of mesophotic coral ecosystems near the lower limits of their bathymetric distributions remain poorly understood. Here we provide the first in-depth assessment of a lower mesophotic coral community (60–100 m) in the Southern Caribbean through vis...
