The findings were published, marking the first confirmed record of a living mesophotic coral ecosystem on the Gulf of Guinea continental shelf. Zinzindohoué noted the discovery likely reflects how little is known about coastal West African regions and suggests many more undocumented coral systems probably exist in the area.

“This is the first confirmed record of a living mesophotic coral ecosystem on the Gulf of Guinea continental shelf… If we were able to find this reef again after 60 years, how many others are still undocumented or simply forgotten?”
