They are one of the most important coral species for building structural reef complexity. Its colonies are massive, forming rounded or columnar domes with brown, grey or greenish coloring, and compared to other coral species, the mountainous star coral is more resistant to diseases. However, unfortunately it is on the Endangered Species Act (ESA) list due to climate change. To help regain important reef structure, it is one of the species that we focus on for restoration.
