Γεννητική Ωρίμανση: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Oval walls of the corallites are closely set, slightly plocoid, and variable in details of septa and costae. Either bright green or brown, with a lighter oral disc.
In most reef environments, including shaded environments such as under overhangs. Subtidal. Also occurs in rocky foreshores protected from strong wave exposure, on the back and foreslope of reef, in lagoons and outer reef channel (Ref. 98471). Polyps extend during daytime (Ref. 130769).
Life cycle and mating behavior
Γεννητική Ωρίμανση | Αναπαραγωγή | Γεννοβολία | Eggs | Γονιμότητα | 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.
