Lobophyllia hemprichii is common on lagoon, pinnacle and seaward reefs at Kwajalein. It resembles L. corymbosa but its corallites are more distinctly separated by deep grooves and it is a more solid coral, not easily breaking into individual stalks.
Some colonies bleached out during the long 2016 bleaching event in the Marshalls.
