Description Colonies are corymbose, corymbose plates or caespitose. Branches are 5-9 mm thick, straight or uniformly curved. Radial corallites are usually in rows and are appressed with rounded calices. Colour: uniform pale cream, grey or brown, sometimes green or purple. Branch ends are sometimes yellow. Abundance: Common, occurs in a wide range of environments, but can be difficult to recognise except when it forms corymbose plates (Veron, 1986). [details]
