''Eunicea'' is a genus of gorgonian-type octocorals in the family Plexauridae. These branched octocorals typically have knobby protuberances from which the polyps protrude. They are often stiffened by purple sclerites and some colonies, in brightly-lit back reef areas are purple, though most colonies are brown or grey. The polyps in some species are large and feathery in appearance. The growth of these corals is rapid and they can be kept in a reef aquarium. ==Species== The World Register of Marine Species lists the following species: 〔 *''Eunicea aspera'' Duchassaing & Michelotti, 1860 *''Eunicea asperula'' Milne Edwards & Haime, 1857 *''Eunicea calyculata'' (Ellis & Solander, 1786) *''Eunicea castelnaudi'' Milne Edwards & Haime, 1857 *''Eunicea citrina'' Valenciennes, 1855 *''Eunicea clavigera'' Bayer, 1961 *''Eunicea distans'' Duchassaing & Michelotti, 1860 *''Eunicea echinata'' Valenciennes, 1855 *''Eunicea esperi'' Duchassaing & Michelotti, 1860 *''Eunicea fusca'' Duchassaing & Michelotti, 1860 *''Eunicea gracilis'' Valenciennes, 1855 *''Eunicea heteropora'' (Lamarck, 1816) *''Eunicea hicksoni'' Stiasny, 1935 *''Eunicea hirta'' Duchassaing & Michelotti, 1860 *''Eunicea humilis'' Milne Edwards, 1857 *''Eunicea inexpectata'' Stiasny, 1939 *''Eunicea knighti'' Bayer, 1961 *''Eunicea laciniata'' Duchassaing & Michelotti, 1860 *''Eunicea laxispica'' (Lamarck, 1815) *''Eunicea lugubris'' Duchassaing & Michelotti, 1860 *''Eunicea madrepora'' (Dana, 1846) *''Eunicea mammosa'' Lamouroux, 1816 *''Eunicea multicauda'' (Lamarck, 1816) *''Eunicea pallida'' Garcia Parrado & Alcolado, 1996 *''Eunicea palmeri'' Bayer, 1961 *''Eunicea pinta'' Bayer & Deichmann, 1958 *''Eunicea sayoti'' Duchassaing & Michelotti, 1860 *''Eunicea sparsiflora'' Kunze, 1916 *''Eunicea stromyeri'' Duchassaing & Michelotti, 1860 *''Eunicea succinea'' (Pallas, 1766) *''Eunicea tourneforti'' Milne Edwards & Haime, 1857 *''Eunicea turgida'' Ehrenberg, 1834 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Eunicea」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
