Three new species of the sun coral genus Tubastraea (Scleractinia: Dendrophylliidae) from Hong Kong, China. <em>Zoological Studies.</em> 61: 45., available online at http://zoolstud.sinica.edu.tw/Journals/61/61-45.pdf [details] From editor or global species database
Synonymy Yiu & Qiu (2022) consider Tubastraea aurea (Quoy & Gaimard, 1833) as the valid name, since the decision to classify it otherwise was based only on the fact that the type locality of this species is in the southern hemisphere, rather than on morphological and phylogenetic analysis. The change in classification contradicted the result of a phylogenetic study showing that it is nested within a clade of Turbastraea (Arrigoni et al. 2014). [details]
