Text-figure 19.—Calical surfaces of two species (Manicina pli- ocenica. Meandrina braziliensis) in different scleractinian families, with similar meandroid colony forms and corallite architectures. M. plimenicii has acute septal teeth, well-developed septal lobes, and a spongy columella, whereas M. braziliensis has minute septal teeth, reduced costae, and a lamellar columella. All photos. X 1.
