Cycloseris cyclolites [Cycloseris cyclolites]
Description
Cycloseris cyclolites is another disc-forming Cycloseris coral, typically appearing as a circular, flattened to gently domed plate. Divers may spot it with a distinct central area and a ring-like arrangement of surface features that make it look “designed” rather than random. It’s usually found on reef slopes or in areas with steady water flow, where it remains a quiet but beautiful focal point.
