Sagala, Darsh (2025) The Evolutionary History of Montastraea: A Brief Insight into the Ancestral Origins of Montastraea. International Journal of Innovative Science and Research Technology, 10 (4): 25apr2366. pp. 4331-4337. ISSN 2456-2165

Abstract

This research paper provides insights into the ancestral origins of Montastraea. The fossil record and microscopic skeletal analysis proves the Rugose corals are linked to Montastraea and also gives an insight into how they evolved. Montastraea cavernosa has had a long evolutionary history, from having the early Rugose corals as their ancestors to being a very resistant species to our pollution of oceans.
