Brief
Introduction
With
the splendid colours and graceful
growth forms, reef-building corals
are one of the most fascinating animal
groups in the world. They are also
excellent underwater architects who
build "homes" for a wide
range of marine animals. In Hong Kong,
there are 84 species of reef-building
corals. With photos, maps and figures,
this book provides detailed information
on these corals and the associated
animals, as well as their distribution,
abundance and diversity in Hong Kong.
