Short description Morphology
Colony: submassive to encrusting. Corallites: deep, with very thin angular walls giving colonies a honeycomb appearance. Corallites: usually less than 7 mm across. Septa: few, widely spaced. Absent paliform lobes. Colors dark, often with white upper margins to walls (Ref. 848).
Life cycle and mating behavior Maturity | Reproduction | Spawning | Eggs | Fecundity | Larvae
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.
