Description Colonies are corymbose to digitate, branches are thick, tapering to a small axial corallite. Radial corallites are uniform in size, usually arranged in rows. Colour: Blue or cream, usually with pale branch tips of various colours. Abundance: seldom abundant. May form large colonies on upper reef slopes (Veron, 1986). [details]
