[Coral-List] Phylogeography and genetic structure of the Pacific species of the crown-of-thorns starfish

[Gert Woerheide]

Dear colleagues,
our third paper on the genetic structure and phylogeography of
thecrown-of-thorns starfish (this time on the Pacific species) has just
been published online first in Coral Reefs:

Vogler, C., Benzie, J.A.H., Tenggardjaja, K., Ambariyanto, Barber, P.H.,
Wörheide, G., 2013. Phylogeography of the crown-of-thorns starfish:
genetic structure within the Pacific species. Coral Reefs, online first.
