Description Corals are solitary (except for F. simplex and occasionally other species), free-living (except for juveniles), flat or done-shaped, circular or elongate in outline, with a central mouth. Septa have large or small, rounded or pointed teeth, costae consist mostly of rows of spines. The disc often has pits between the costae on the lower surface. Polyps are usually extended only at night and have short widely spaced tentacles. (Veron, 1986 <57>) [details]
