Main Ref. Collin, R., M.C. Díaz, J. Norenburg, R.M. Rocha, J.A. Sánchez, M. Schulze, A. Schwartz and A. Valdés, 2005
Remarks Shallow water octocoral (Ref. 808), usually in turbid coastal areas (Ref. 1010998). On bay and nearshore (Ref. 109199). At depths of 1.5 to 8 m on coral reefs and rocky bottoms (Ref. 83916). Occurs on shaded clear waters where currents are strong (Ref. 101098). Common in the fouling community of harbors, on piers or wrecks (Ref. 415, 101098) which are not exposed to sunlight (Ref. 415)
