The paper identifies an invasive soft coral, Xenia umbellata, in Cuban waters and discusses its potential introduction pathways and ecological impact.

The paper presents the first draft genome and genomic resources for Xenia umbellata and its dinoflagellate symbiont, collected early in its invasion of Puerto Rico, to study its spread and symbiotic relationships.

The paper reports the first record of the invasive soft coral species Latissimia ningalooensis in southern Puerto Rico, following the introduction of Xenia umbellata.

The paper identifies a new invasive soft coral species, Xenia umbellata, in southwest Puerto Rico using genetic analysis and highlights its ecological impact.
