This-encrusting: 0.3 - 0.6 cm thickness. Lemon yellow to orange. Numerous pronounced dermal channels converge towards collared-transparent oscula: 0.1 - 0.3 cm wide. Very soft and fragile, releases copias amounts of mucus upon handling (Ref. 415).
Maximum thickness: 0.6 cm (Ref. 415). Common on mangrove overhangs and peat banks protected from direct sunlight (Ref. 415).
