Dear Listers, I am involved in a research project in Florida Bay looking at
species composition in the release channels that lie between the banks. The
hardbottom channels contain hardcorals as well as numerous gorgonians. I
need help in identifying the gorgonians to at least the genus level. I took
video with closeups of the gorgonians and was wondering if there is anyone
that could take a look and help me in their identification. So far, I have
identified a few: Plexaurella nutans; Briareum asbestinum; and
Pseudoplexaura spp. from the video. Im not an expert and was hoping that
someone could direct me to someone with some expertise. Thanks
