Velimirov (1976) reported that variation in colony growth form and sclerites of Eunicella cayolinii correlates with intensity of water movement, and Kim et al (2004) and Prada et aL (2008) noted numerous morphological differences, including length and width of sclerites, among shallow-and deep-water forms of Eunicea fiexuosa.

Later, Fauchald (1968, 1970) published a monography on the Eunicea from western Mexico, including specimens from the Velero expeditions, and, in 1972, as part of his PhD thesis, analyzed all the polychaete material in the Allan Hancock Foundation collection distributed in the Mexican Pacific.
