The status of hard coral diversity at Christmas Island and Cocos (Keeling) Islands

Very little is known about the coral biodiversity in Australia’s remote Indian Ocean Territories; hence it is not possible to detect extinctions, depletions or to quantify changes in the coral fauna. Here we document the results of rapid visual assessment surveys of hard coral biodiversity at Christ...
