Short description Morfologi

Colonies are large, with rounded projections. Meandroid valleys give this species its resemblance to a brain. Color is consistently light brown, with a clear surface.

Biologi     Ordlista (t.ex. epibenthic)

Occurs in most reef habitats, particularly back reef margins. On subtidal rock and rocky reefs, back and foreslope, lagoons, and outer reef channel (Ref. 98471). Form large colonies with rounded projections. A few borers or nestlers can be found on its surface (Ref. 130769).

Life cycle and mating behavior Könsmognad | Reproduktion | Lek | Eggs | Fecundity | Larvae

Hermaphroditic (Ref. 113712). 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).
