Length at first maturity / Μέγεθος / Weight / Age
Γεννητική Ωρίμανση: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Formation: encrusting to massive, often over 1 m across. Corallites: cerioid. Septa: with exsert teeth. Fleshy tissue over the skeleton present, but not thick enough to mask underlying skeletal structures. Color: mottled shades of brown and green, usually with brown walls and green oral discs (Ref. 848).
Occurs in most reef environments (Ref. 848), specifically in mid-reef slopes (Ref. 98471).
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.
