“…Balliella pseudocorticata has also been reported from 27 to 40 m in Bermuda (Schneider and Searles, 1997 In Puerto Rico, the species is found exclusively in deep water (see Ballantine, 1990); however, C. bisporum was recently reported as a shallow-water epiphyte in the Mediterranean Sea (Sartoni and Boddi, 2002) and also in Colombia by Rincon-Diaz et al (2014) The species was described on the basis of specimens from the Bahamas collected at a depth of 76 m and from a submersible collection in Puerto Rico (Ballantine and Aponte, 2005). These represent the only collections known for the species.…”

“…The generitype was collected from 31 m depth in Mona Island, Puerto Rico (Ballantine and Wynne, 1987). The species has also been collected to 40 and 53 m in Bermuda (Wynne and Schneider, 1996), to 60 m in Brazil (Peruzzi de Oliveira and Yoneshigue-Valentin, 2014), and to 76 m in the Bahamas by Ballantine and Aponte (2005 , is an extremely common element in deepwater habitats in the Caribbean. The species is also known to 91 m in the Bahamas (Ballantine and Aponte, 2005).…”

“…Bucher and Norris (1995) reported the species (also as A. latiaxis) to a maximum depth of 12 m from Martinique. This species is currently known only from Puerto Rico, where it was described from shelf edge habitats at 18 m depth (Aponte and Ballantine, 1995 (Ballantine and Aponte, 2005). As A. ogdeniae I.…”

It is also known to 76 m in the Bahamas (Ballantine and Aponte, 2005).…”

In his formal plan for the Institution, Joseph Henry outlined a program that included the following statement: "It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge." This theme of basic research has been adhered to through the years by thousands of titles issued in series publications under the Smithsonian imprint, commencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: s m i t h s o n i a n c o n t r i b u t i o n s t o b o t a n y • n u m b e r 1 0 5The Cover images, from left to right: Edge of insular shelf, offshore from La Parguera; technical divers' descent to the mesophotic; bottom habit, edge of insular shelf, "Weinberg," offshore from La Parguera.

Mesophotic coral ecosystems (MCEs) and temperate mesophotic ecosystems (TMEs) have received increasing research attention during the last decade as many new and improved methods and technologies have become more accessible to explore deeper parts of the ocean. However, large voids in knowledge remain in our scientific understanding, limiting our ability to make scientifically based decisions for conservation and management of these ecosystems. Here, we present a list of key research and con-servation questions to enhance progress in the field. Questions were generated following an initial open call to MCE and TME experts, representing a range of career levels, interests, organizations (including academia, governmental, and nongovernmental), and geographic locations. Questions were refined and grouped into eight broad themes: (1) Distribution, (2) Environmental and Physical Processes, (3) Biodiversity and Community Structure, (4) Ecological Processes, (5) Connectivity, (6) Physiology, (7) Threats, and (8) Management and Policy.
