珊瑚眼镜蛇一种珊瑚眼镜蛇属的毒蛇，原产于美洲热带地区及美国南部，以鲜红、黄、黑三色相间的环纹为特征

The probability of finding synchronously releasing colonies is much lower between species than within species. And in branch form Millepora, the probabiliy of finding synchronously releasing colonies is much lower between area than within area.

另外在同一地点的三种火珊瑚释出水母体的日期甚少相同，而且种间群体同步释放水母体的机率比种内低；在地点比较上，枝状火珊瑚在同一地点内的同步释放机率比在地点间的机率高。

The medusa release of all three species of Millepora occurs between April and May. They might have up to 4 bouts during this period, each lasting 1-3 nights. The first medusa appear before dusk, although more were accumulated after sun-set.

研究发现三种火珊瑚释放水母体的季节都在4、5月，而且每种火珊瑚在这两个月期间会有 2~4次释放水母体，每次释放约 1~3个晚上。

Medusa release in Millepora is affected by light and their sex. Male medusae were released prior to females; while dark treatment delayed the release of male and female medusae.

初步研究发现火珊瑚释放水母体与光线和性别有关，雄水母体比雌水母体先释放出来，不论雌、雄群体，置於暗组的火珊瑚释放水母体的巅峰时间，要比置於正常情形下的来得晚。

"Coral is an animal but they have algae living inside the coral and those algae need the light to photosynthesize," he explained.

他说，珊瑚是动物，但是珊瑚里面有海藻生存。

Biologists also fear what might happen to corals, which despite their plantlike appearance are actually colonies of small animals related to sea anemones.

生物学家也担心珊瑚会受到影响。珊瑚的外表看来像植物，其实牠是小动物群体，跟海葵有近亲关系。

Our data show that growth and calcification of massive Porites in the Great Barrier Reef are already declining and are doing so at a rate unprecedented in coral records reaching back 400 years," the researchers wrote."

我们的数据显示，大堡礁滨珊瑚的生长及石灰化进程早已经开始减缓，其减缓速度在这四百年的珊瑚记录中是空前的。

Early sex change of solitary snails can explain the small size of females on branching Porites in contract to the massive Porites.

推测在分枝状微孔珊瑚上紫口珊瑚螺大部分是单独存在其变性时间未受到其它雌螺的影响，因而造成较小个体的雌螺进而产生较差的生殖能力。

METHODS: Bone defects of 3.5 cm×1.5 cm in size were made in goat mandible. Osteoblastic cells/porites complexes were produced.

在羊下颌骨上造成3.5cm×1.5cm大小的骨缺损，缺损中植入钛网／珊瑚／成骨细胞，并设单纯珊瑚颗粒植入作为对照组。

Singer Leona Lewis and former Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page emerged as the bus transformed into a grass-covered carnival float, and the pair combined for a rendition of "Whole Lotta Love".

歌手leona刘易斯和前率领的飞艇的吉他手吉米页出现巴士转化为基层所涵盖的嘉年华花车，和一双合并为一移交&整个lotta爱&。
