Short description Hình thái học

Colony: massive, submassive, or encrusting. Corallites: very meandroid with long valleys, or sub-meandroid with short valleys of 1 to 3 centers. Most with deep, steep sided valleys and distinct corallite centers. Septa: regularly spaced, equal and even; paliform lobes present; margins with fine dentations. Large and conspicuous columella. Thecae thickness varies greatly. Skeletal structures vary between environments. Colors also variable but are mostly uniformly dull brown or green; walls and valley floors occasionally in contrasting colors (Ref. 085244).

Sinh học     Tự điển (thí dụ epibenthic)

Found on rocky and gravel bottom at depths between 1.8 to 21.6 m. Also on volcanic submarine beds (Ref. 88968) and most tropical coral reef environments (Ref. 85244).

Life cycle and mating behavior Chín muồi sinh dục | Sự tái sinh sản | Đẻ trứng | Các trứng | Sự sinh sản | Ấu trùng

Hermaphroditic (Ref. 113712). 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 (Ref. 833).
