Dendronephthya sp.

Orange seems to be the most common color for Dendronephthya at Kwajalein. The photos below were taken on lagoon, pinnacle and seaward reefs. There may be more than one species represented.

A cluster of colonies in a ledge under a huge rock on K10 pinnacle has been present for a number of years.

With its white stalk, this one looked a bit different.
