Solitary, unattached coral found at all depths. The elongate colony has a thin furrow created by a series of corallites that run along the central axis. Colonies have a slightly rough surface, but appear neat due to the regular arrangement of petalloid septa, and may reach 75 cm in length (Ref. 269).
Zooxanthellae; free-living (Ref. 19).
Life cycle and mating behavior
Γεννητική Ωρίμανση | Αναπαραγωγή | Γεννοβολία | Eggs | Γονιμότητα | Larvae
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).
