Caryl Posted May 20, 2007 Report Share Posted May 20, 2007 Just doing an article and need to check (as I know nothing about marines) whether the following can be found in aquariums in NZ: Sun corals (Tubastrea aurea) Heliofungia sp Fungia sp Goniopora sp Herpolita limax (slipper coral) Cynaria lacrymalis (elephant's eye coral) Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lduncan Posted May 20, 2007 Report Share Posted May 20, 2007 Yes, all of the above are, or have been in NZ at some point. And just a small spelling correction. Herpolita should be Herpolitha. Layton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted May 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2007 Many thanks Layton. Hmm Herpolita is the spelling used in the magazine I am using as a reference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lduncan Posted May 20, 2007 Report Share Posted May 20, 2007 I just double checked and Herpolitha is the correct spelling, according to Veron's taxonomic reference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted May 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2007 I checked too although I was sure you were correct and the magazine was wrong :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
