Millepora complanata(Lamarck 1816)

This fire coral consists mainly of upward projecting plate-like branches, which arise from an encrusting base. In some examples the encrusting base may now be dead and thus inconspicuous, laving only the upward groupings of plates, while in others the encrusting base may be dominant, with only limited vertical projections.
