''Antillogorgia bipinnata'', the bipinnate sea plume, is a species of colonial soft coral, a sea fan in the family Gorgoniidae. It is found in the Caribbean Sea. It was first described as ''Pseudopterogorgia bipinnata '' in 1864 by the American zoologist Addison Emery Verrill. Williams and Chen (2012), transferred all the Atlantic species of ''Pseudopterogorgia'' to ''Antillogorgia.〔 ==Description== ''Antillogorgia bipinnata'' is a colonial soft coral growing in the form of a bipinnate fan usually in a single plane. It can grow to a height of about with a slightly smaller width. It consists of a main stem with several branches, with regularly-spaced pairs of branchlets. The branchlets are stiff, slightly flattened, and typically long and in diameter. They are spaced about apart and project at an angle of about 65° from the branch. The apertures from which the polyps protrude are small and slit-like and are arranged in staggered double rows on either side of the branchlets. The colour of this sea fan is usually violet or purple but may be yellow or whitish.
