Length at first maturity / Size / Weight / سن
بلوغ: Lm ? range ? - ? cm
Colony: submassive to massive, often 1 m across. Corallites: subplocoid, circular to irregularly shaped, crowded; inner walls plunge vertically. Septa: thin, uniformly spaced and subequal, most reaching the columella deep within the calice. Costae of adjacent corallites do not meet, leaving a narrow ambulacral groove. Paliform lobes absent. Small and compact columellae. Color: tan with white centers (Ref. 848).
Found in shallow exposed reef environments (Ref. 848).
Life cycle and mating behavior
بلوغ | تولید مثل | تخم ریزی | Eggs | Fecundity | 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.
