Length at first maturity / Size / Vikt / Age
Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Formation: phaceloid up to 0.5 m across. Corallites: tubular, 4 to 5 mm diameter, compacted to clumps. Alternating order of septo-costae, often only the first reach the columella. Both columellae and paliform tubes may be well developed. Zooxanthellate only at shallow depths, where light penetrates. Color: cream or brown; brown tentacles (Ref. 848).
Known from infra- and circalittoral zones (Ref. 85338), occurring in shallow rocky substrates, to deep water for azooxanthellate colonies (Ref. 848).
Life cycle and mating behavior
Könsmognad | Reproduktion | Lek | Ägg | Fecundity | Larver
Members of the class Anthozoa are either gonochoric or hermaphroditic. Mature gametes are shed into the coelenteron and spawned through the mouth. Life cycle: The zygote develops into a planktonic planula larva. Metamorphosis begins with early morphogenesis of tentacles, septa and pharynx before larval settlement on the aboral end.
