Hydnophora [Hydnophora]
Description
Hydnophora includes species of corals known for their unique skeletal projections called monticules, which give the colonies a rough, textured appearance. These corals are found in shallow reef environments in the Indo-Pacific and are important for their role in reef building and providing habitat for other marine species.
