Short description Hình thái học

Colony: massive. Corallites: circular, closely compacted in shallow water, more widely spaced in deeper water. Septa: widely spaced, distinctly irregular. Often poorly developed paliform lobes. Color: pale yellow, cream or green, with dark brown or green oral discs (Ref. 848).

Minimum depth from Ref. 104515. Found in all reef environments, often a dominant species of back reef margins (Ref. 848). Also on subtidal rock, rocky reefs, outer reef channel, back and foreslope and lagoons; occasionally in inter-reef soft substrate (Ref. 98471). Tends to form low heads or encrust rocks in shallow waters (Ref. 130769).

Life cycle and mating behavior Chín muồi sinh dục | Sự tái sinh sản | Đẻ trứng | Eggs | Sự sinh sản | Larvae

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).
