For the last 6-8 weeks I have seen the same White Plague disease effecting
Diploria corals in Boynton Beach, Florida. On a July 3 dive on a section of
reef from 26 30 300 N to 26 30 500 N, we observed about 20% Diploria infected.
Also, some heads that were first observed infected in May are now, completely
white.
Are there other reports of this in south Florida? Is there someone tracking
this? Who should this be reported to?
