Cover: Corals have diverse colony morphologies ranging from elaborate branching structures to thin crusts molded to the reef. This image shows a large branching coral colony in the centre, with column-shaped, encrusting and foliose corals beneath. Hoogenboom et al. ( pp. 3866-3877) investigated how the productivity of coral assemblages depends on the types of species present on the reef by measuring multiple physiological traits of common species. They found that estimated carbon uptake varied >20-fold between assemblages of species, but this variation was driven by differences in the tissue area of different morphologies, rather than differences in area-specific physiological rates.
