Acknowledgement
We deeply appreciate prof. Johann Hohenegger, for giving helpful comment on morphological species identification of Sorites orbiculus, and particular thanks to the colleagues who have helped with the sampling via SCUBA. This work was supported by grants from the National Institute of Biological Resources (NIBR), funded by the Ministry of Environment(MOE) of the Republic of Korea (NIBR2012 - Discovery of Korean Indigenous Species, and NIBR202333201).
