WA Museum Records and Supplements | Updated 1 decade ago

Abstract
A new species of soft coral Sinularia platysma (family Alcyoniidae) is described from material collected off Rottnest Island, Western Australia. The unusual encrusting colonies have no lobes and their dish-like aspect easily distinguishes them from previously described species.
