Description Colonies are hemispherical or encrusting. Calices are 2.5-4 mm in diameter, circular in outline, with thick walls. There are usually six thick pali which are in contact forming a crown. All septal structures are heavily granulated. Colour: brown or green, usually with distinctively coloured oral discs and pale tips to the tentacles (Veron, 1986). [details]

Biology zooxanthellate [details]Synonymy According to Veron & Pichon (1982), G. minor Crossland, 1852 has priority over its synonym G. pedunculata Quoy & Gaimard, 1833, but since the former is a junior synonym it should be considered invalid and the G. pedunculata should be considered valid.
