Colonies form flat, unifacial explanate plates with corallites in long, roughly concentric valley. Valleys are closely (2-4mm) spaced. Corallites are small, closed-together and faced forwards. Columellae are weakly developed. Grey, grey-brown or green in color.

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 (Ref. 833).
