Corals

Psammocora digitata

Group: Coral
Typical depth: 0–40 m
IUCN status: LC

This stony coral grows across most reef settings within the top forty metres, its surface marked by the small, swirling patterns typical of its genus. Algae inside its tissues feed it, and in warming water its tips bleach first, with heavy losses recorded in Palau, though overall it is listed as Least Concern.
