Short description आकृति विज्ञान

Small colonies are encrusting, and larger ones develop vertical plates that anastomose to form an interlocking matrix. The sides and edges of the plates are quite smooth. Individual corallites are tiny, superficial and run in irregular rows (Ref. 269).

जीवविज्ञान     शब्द संग्रह (उदाहरणार्थ epibenthic)

Common in shallow to intermediate depths and may form colonies several meters in diameter and in height (Ref. 269). Common in shallow to intermediate depths (Ref. 269) in most reef habitats (Ref. 98471). Growth varies with water conditions: large, thin plates in clear shelter waters; thick plates in exposed areas; and minimal ridges form in high turbidity. The bivalve Barbatia helblingi was reported to be byssally attached, wedged between the plates of this coral (Ref. 130769).

Life cycle and mating behavior परिपक्व अवधि | पुनरुत्पत्ति | मछलीऔ का अंडे देना | 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.
