Fungia scutaria
''Fungia scutaria'' is a species of plate or mushroom coral in the family Fungiidae. It is found in the Indo-Pacific region.
==Description==
''Fungia scutaria'' is a solitary, non-colonial coral that is free living and not attached to the seabed. It is discoid or elongated in shape and can grow to a very large size. The polyp can be up to long 〔(''Fungia scutaria'' ) Corals of the World online. Retrieved 2011-12-14.〕 and is embedded in a cup shaped hollow known as a corallite, surrounded by calcareous material. Lining this are narrow ribs known as septa, each having a tall tentacular lobe near its origin in the centre. The septa bear unlobed teeth and further tentacular lobes at intervals where the septa divide. Outside the corallite the ribs continue, now known as costae, bearing rows of tiny spines. The underside of the coral bears a scar resulting from its detachment from the sea bed as a juvenile. The colour varies, often being brown, yellowish or blue with contrasting tentacular lobes. The polyp has a central, slit-like mouth and a small number of short, tapering tentacles.〔(''Fungia'' (mushroom coral) ) Reef coral genera of the Western Indian Ocean.
