Abstract
    Soft corals and sea fans are amazingly beautiful and abundant inhabitants of the World’s coral reefs. This richly illustrated field and laboratory guide opens the door to the understanding and identification of the over 90 genera known from the warm shallow waters of the Central and Western Pacific, the Indian Ocean, and the Red Sea. The guide makes identification easy through underwater photographs, detailed drawings of the skeletal elements, and clear descriptions of distinctive features, habitat, abundance and World distribution. Photographic plates cover the major growth forms, and include pictures of entire animals in their natural environment along with close-up photographs of characteristic details. An extensive introduction represents a rich source of information about the biology and ecology of reef-inhabiting soft corals and sea fans, and explains the few technical terms used. The book should be of equal value to professional scientists, students, divers, aquarium owners and nature enthusiasts.
