Gardineroseris pavonoides [Gardineroseris pavonoides]

Description

Divers may encounter this coral as a low, plate-like or mound-forming colony with a distinctive, patterned surface. Its growth form and texture can make it stand out against surrounding rubble or reef rock, especially in shaded crevices. With careful viewing, you’ll often notice fine details that give it a refined, reef-sculpture look.
