Abstract

During one of the field trips undertaken by Scuba diving in the nearshore waters off Thankachimadam near Villundy in the Palk Bay Sea for the qualitative evidence of the inhabitant species of soft corals, a species resembling Sinularia was brought for culturing in the hatchery. Subsequent studies through microphotographs and the access to suitable literature proved it to be yet another species under the genus Cladiella.
