Galapagos coral  (Polycyathus isabela)

Description

A rare coral found only around the islands after which it is named, Polycyathus isabela generally forms low colonies in which the individual corallites are joined together (3). Corals of the Caryophylliidae family are usually pale in colour, and as this species is a rather small and cryptic coral, it is easily overlooked (3).
