Proposed changes to province, ecoregion and Large Marine Ecosystem classifications in the Indo-West Pacific Realm, based on reef-building corals.

Province and ecoregion names and numbers follow the MEOW classification [36] (see caption to fig. 2), while the suggested changes are illustrated in fig. 2b. Findings are labeled by whether they are primary (supported by data from the field or the IUCN Red List (RL), along with statistical analysis) or secondary, inferred from primary findings of this study and listed sources. Both levels of findings pose hypotheses for further research and confirmation.
