Acropora macrostoma (Brook) View in CoL ; Crossland 1952. Here removed from synonymy with Acropora tenuis (Dana, 1846) contra Veron and Wallace 1984; 279.
Specimens examined: NHM: 1878.2.4.7 , Madrepora macrostoma holotype, Mauritius ; MTQ: G51822 , G51823 and G51824 , from Baie Aux Tortues , Mauritius .
Remarks: See remarks under A. tenuis (above). This species is currently confirmed to occur only in the type locality of Mauritius. There are literature records from other locations (e.g. Mozambique; Sheppard 1987), but further research is needed to establish its distribution.
