Leptastrea magaloni [Leptastrea magaloni]
Description
This crust coral typically appears as a firmly attached, spreading patch on reef rock, with a textured surface that can range from smooth to slightly raised. Divers may see it blending into the reef while still catching attention due to its distinct pattern and how it breaks up the rock’s outline. It’s a subtle but rewarding find for divers who enjoy close-up reef details.
