From editor or global species database
Comparison Differs from Hoplangia in having entire axial edges of septa dentate. [details]
Diagnosis Corallum colonial, usually encrusting or subplocoid in calice arrangement achieved by extracalicular budding from edge zone; corallites united basally by thin coenosteum; costae granular; axial edges of all septa dentate; columella papillose. [details]
Remark The genus is in need of revision. There are approximately 30 species, 15 of which occur in the Recent (Cairns et al., 1999). [details]
Taxonomic remark Seiblitz et al. (2022) placed Astrangia in Rhizangiidae, having overlooked its recent placement in Astrangiidae (Löser et al. 2021) They did not discuss its taxonomic position and therefore we cannot say that they moved the genus back to Rhizangiidae, [details]Unreviewed
Biology zooxanthellate and azooxanthellate [details]
Depth range 0-263 m [details]
Description Genus of non-reef building scleractinians; Indo-Pacific and Atlantic. Solitary, attached and cylindrical. Corallites are in close clusters linked by rootlets, all septa are toothed. Cleaned skeletons of some species remain dark-coloured (Veron, 1986 <57>). [details]
Fossil range Cretaceous to Recent [details]
