Bibliographical note

In the Galapagos Islands, Ecuador, two species of deep-dwelling (15 m depth) corals (Psammocora stellata and Diaseris distorta) survived elevated sea water temperatures that killed 95% of the coral living in shallow (2 m depth) water. These elevated temperatures occurred during the severe El Nino-Southern Oscillation of 1982-1983.
