Oulophyllia levis [Oulophyllia levis]
Description
Oulophyllia levis typically appears as a smooth, rounded coral with subtle ridges rather than dramatic spines. Underwater, divers may notice its compact growth and the way it forms small ledges that shelter microfauna. It’s a great example of how reef life can look both delicate and sturdy at the same time.
