Dendrophyllia granosa Studer, 1878 View in CoL

Dendrophyllia granosa Studer, 1878: 653 View in CoL (WA).–Cairns, 2001: 34 (listed).

New records. None.

Types. The holotype is presumed to be deposited at ZMB, although it has not been examined by the author. Type Locality: Dirk Hartog Island , Western Australia, 91 m.

Remarks. This species was overlooked by Cairns (1998) in his revision of the Western Australian azooxanthellate corals, although it might be one of the unidentified specimens he reported as Dendrophyllia spp. Indeed, this poorly known species has not been mentioned since its original description, and has never been illustrated.
