Husbandry

Acropora solitaryensis
Veron and Wallace, 1984

Similar Species: Acropora natalensis and A. branchi. See also A. glauca, which has a similar growth-form but has rounded peripheral corallites and indistinct axial corallites. Acropora divaricata and A. stoddarti may have similar corallites; the former seldom forms flat plates, the latter always does. Colonies in some exposed habitats resemble A. irregularis.
