From: A Mediterranean mesophotic coral reef built by non-symbiotic scleractinians
Coral reef block with details of the main builder taxa identified. (A) Sampled block with indication of cut line (red dotted line). (B) Schematic representation of the cutting surface. Red boxes indicate the different positions where pictures C ÷ E were taken within the block; (C) external surface with scleractinian corals and sponges; (D) intermediate portion mainly characterized by serpulid tubes and bivalves; (E) basal portion with bryozoans, serpulids and eroded scleractinian skeletons. Scale bars: A, B = 10 cm; C ÷ E = 1 cm.
