Corals of the World

[Dann 49]

The coral ID component is based on J.E.N. Veron's epic three-volume book, "Corals of the World" (2000) and incorporates the species data found in the electronic publication "Coral ID" (Veron and Stafford-Smith, 2002). Approximately 800 species of stoney corals are described - 170 species of Acropora alone! Each species factsheet contains in situ photos of corals and their skeletons with text describing their physical characteristics, habitat, abundance, and similar species. If you're looking to research or ID a stoney coral, there is no better place to start then here. http://www.advancedaquarist.com
