Agaricia tenuifolia has been observed to a maximum depth of 15 m, based on personal communication with our expert, Charlie Veron. Zooxanthellate (Ref. 116012). Common along the Caribbean continental coast. Very common in Bocas del Torro, Panama; does not occur in Florida or the Bahamas (Ref. 415).

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturidade | Reprodução | Desova | Ovos | Fecundidade | Larvas

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.
