Description
Figure 20. Favia, Diploria, and Pseudodiploria micromorphology (scanning electron microscopy): left column, wall; middle column, mid-septum; right column, columella. Favia, Diploria, and Pseudodiploria have paddle-shaped to tricorne teeth with elliptical bases orientated perpendicular to the septal plane. The interarea of teeth is smooth, and granules are spiked and aligned. Teeth in different septal cycles differ slightly in Favia, but are equal in Diploria and Pseudodiploria. A–C, Favia fragum (Esper, 1795); figured specimen = SUI122816 (FA1065), Bocas del Toro, Panama. D–F, Favia gravida (Verrill, 1868); figured specimen = YPM4518, Rio Grande Do Norte State, Fernando de Noronha Archipelago, Brazil. G–I, Diploria labyrinthiformis (Linnaeus, 1758); figured specimen = SUI122810 (FA1061), Bocas del Toro, Panama. J–L, Pseudodiploria strigosa (Dana, 1846); figured specimens = SUI122813 (FA1062), Bocas del Toro, Panama (J, K); SUI122815 (FA1103), Discovery Bay, Jamaica (L).
