Summary[edit] Description: Millepora complanata (Lamarck, 1816) - bladed fire corals in a patch reef. These upright structures are calcareous skeletons of colonies of hydrozoan polyps. They are not true stony corals - fire corals are hydrozoans while true stony corals are anthozoans. Nematocysts in the tentacles of the small polyps deliver a painful sting. The skeleton of Millepora complanata has a wrinkled bladed form. Another species, Millepora alcicornis, also occurs in patch reefs around San Salvador Island - it has a complexly branching skeleton. Classification: Animalia, Cnidaria, Hydrozoa, Milleporidae Locality: Gaulin Reef, northern Graham's Harbour, offshore from the northern shoreline of San Salvador Island, eastern Bahamas.

Summary[edit] Description: Millepora alcicornis Linnaeus, 1758 - branching fire corals in a patch reef. The tan-colored structures are calcareous skeletons of colonies of hydrozoan polyps. They are not true stony corals - fire corals are hydrozoans while true stony corals are anthozoans. Nematocysts in the tentacles of the small polyps deliver a painful sting. The skeleton of Millepora alcicornis has a complexly branching skeleton. Another species, Millepora complanata, also occurs in patch reefs around San Salvador Island - it's skeleton has a wrinkled bladed form. The overall skeletal shape of Millepora alcicornis is often a consequence of the fire coral encrusting octocoral skeletons. The spotted fish in the lower right corner is Lactophrys triqueter (smooth trunkfish). Classification: Animalia, Cnidaria, Hydrozoa, Milleporidae Locality: Snapshot Reef, Fernandez Bay, offshore from the western shoreline of San Salvador Island, eastern Bahamas.
