New coral, sea slug species found

2nd May 2010

Scientists of the Bombay Natural History Society (BNHS) have recently discovered eight species of hard coral in Porbandar. This is perhaps the first time that coral presence has been recorded along the coast in Probandar district.

The recent discoveries have been hailed by the community of scientists and marine researchers in the country. Some species are an indicator of the good health of the marine ecology here and the sea slugs, for instance, are a subject of great interest to biologists for their bioactive compounds used in drug preparations.

As the state celebrates its 50th birthday, this seems to be nature's gift to Gujarat. Scientists have recorded some thirteen new species of corals and sea slugs on the coast of Gujarat with eight in Porbandar.(dna)
