CRUZ-FRANCISCO M. SC., Vicencio De la et al. First record of Callipodium rubens (Anthozoa: Octocorallia) in a lagoon system in Mexico. rev. colombiana cienc. anim. Recia [online]. 2019, vol.11, n.2, pp.32-42. Epub 07-Maio-2020. ISSN 2027-4297. https://doi.org/10.24188/recia.v11.n2.2019.715.
Considering that in the Mexican coastal of Gulf of Mexico, the octocoral reports have been made exclusively in marine ecosystems, the present investigation provides the unusual presence of Callipodium rubens in a lagoon system of Veracruz, for the first time. In the Tampamacho lagoon, nine, two and 13 specimens (respectively) were recorder during 2015, 2016 and 2018. They were fixed on immerged roots of Rhizophora mangle. Callipodium rubens was recorded occupying the lower horizons (near the bottom) of mangrove roots, spaces that are usually occupied by other sessile epibionts such as bivalves and barnacles. Because the records have been made in different locations and years in Tampamachoo lagoon, a detailed study is necessary to explain the ecological role that C. rubens performs, as a part of epibiont community in red mangrove roots.
