The taxonomic system of Wells and Lang (1973) as modified by Cairns (1982) was used, since several of the species synonymized by Zlatarsky and Estallela (1982) are separable on biological criteria (, Lang, 1971; van Moorsel, 1983; de We

Agaricia humilis was not distinguished from Agaricia agaricites in transects due to time limitations, nor was Agaricia lamarcki distinguished from Agaricia grahamae.
