Description synthétique Morphologie

This is the classic "staghorn coral", with aborescent growth form and branches usually less than 50 cm in length. Colonies are composed of smooth appearing, straight branches less than 2 cm thick; branching is irregular such that colonies from thickets which often dominate large areas of lagoon in shallow and intermediate depths (Ref. 269).

Biologie     Glossaire (ex. epibenthic)

Depth based from occurrence record (Ref. 8294); to be replaced with a better reference. Dominates large areas of lagoon in shallow and intermediate depths (Ref. 269). Has high bleaching level and high estimated mortality in Palau (Ref. 66144).

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturité | Reproduction | Frai | Œufs | Fécondité | Larves

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).
