Cladopsammia
Cladopsammia is a genus of stony cup corals in the family Dendrophylliidae. Members of this genus are found at depths down to about 470 metres (1,540 ft). They are azooxanthellate corals, meaning that they do not contain symbiotic photosynthetic dinoflagellates as do many species of coral.[1]
