Γεννητική Ωρίμανση: Lm ? range ? - ? cm
Formation: with tubular corallites, often over 1 m across. Individual or small group of corallites usually not connected, i.e., have dead basal connections, and are easily broken and scattered. Corallites: rounded, in varied shapes averaging 15 to 20 mm diameter. Septa: rounded, bead-like dentations only in living colonies. Color: mostly bluish-gray (Ref. 848).
Occurs in shallow turbid reef environments (Ref. 848).
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.
