Presenting over 80 species and their relatives, Corals of Hawai‘i is a comprehensive guide to virtually all currently known species of Hawaiian corals, including some corals never before reported in Hawai‘i. A photographic Coral Directory is provided for quick reference and identification along with detailed descriptions for each species throughout the book.
