Reference collections made as part of this study were deposited at the Bolinao Marine Station and the Marine Science Institute, University of the Philippines. Additional specimens were sent to the Australian Institute of Marine Science for further study. The purpose of this study was to produce a comprehensive checklist of the hermatypic corals of the Philippines, which would provide a basis for comparisons between the hermatypic corals of the Philippines and those of other Indo-Pacific regions. {"type": "Polygon", "coordinates": [[[117.0, 5.0], [127.0, 5.0], [127.0, 19.0], [117.0, 19.0], [117.0, 5.0]]]} 117.0 127.0 5.0 19.0 Annotated checklist of the hermatypic corals of the Philippines: Veron JEN and Hodgson G (1989) Annotated checklist of the hermatypic corals of the Philippines.
