Euphyllia ancora
''Euphyllia ancora'' is a species of hard coral in the family Euphylliidae.〔 It is known by several common names, including anchor coral, sausage coral, hammer coral, ridge coral, and bubble honeycomb coral.〔 Lamare, V. and P. Scaps. (''Euphyllia ancora'' Veron & Pichon, 1980. ) ''In'': Données d'Observations pour la Reconnaissance et l’Identification de la faune et de la flore Subaquatiques (DORIS).〕
This type of madreporial colony is easy to identify because of its puffy tubular tentacles with T-shaped tips. The coral is blue-gray to orange in color, sometimes with green on the tentacles. Colonies are usually no more than a meter across, but at times can reach several meters.〔(''Euphyllia ancora''. ) AIMS Coral Fact Sheets. Australian Institute of Marine Science.〕
The anchor coral is widespread throughout the tropical waters of the Indo-West Pacific area from the Maldives to the Salomon Islands with a large presence in Indonesia.〔 It is common in some areas, but it faces several threats that have reduced its overall population. It is overharvested for the aquarium trade. Its coral reef habitat is also degraded and destroyed in many areas.〔
