Astrocoeniidae

Astrocoeniidae is a small family of stony corals. They are endemic to the waters around Papua New Guinea and northern Australia.[2]

Description

Astrocoeniids are hermatypic (reef-building) colonial corals containing symbiotic zooxanthellae. They are usually encrusting corals up to 50 centimetres (20 in) in diameter in their favoured habitats of steep slopes where strong currents rise from below, in crevices and below overhangs. On reef slopes, where the water is turbid, they are much smaller, only reaching 5 centimetres (2.0 in) across.[2]

Genera

The World Register of Marine Species includes the following genera and species in the family:[1]
