Wrinkle Coral [Coscinaraea monile]

Wrinkle Coral
Description

Wrinkle Coral typically grows in thick, irregular formations where the surface appears ridged and puckered. Divers may see it as a textured patch on the reef, with the ridges creating depth and a slightly “braided” look under direct sunlight.
