That’s either one very fat Duncan or an even fatter hammer. I’m going with Duncan.

 

[Caccamo]

No It’s not a Ducan.
The Ducan It’s next to him.
This is the Duncan.

This is the Euphyllia.
I’m 99% sure that is an Euphyllia.
I bought it 3 years ago, as Euphyllia, generic, but I have never been able to identify it under which species.

Cristata coral? Or a really fluffy frogspawn variety. Quite unique and beautiful.

Edit: Frammer?

Really is unique looking.

Not Cristata, because 2 years ago 1 head died, and the skeleton did not have the characteristic septa of the Cristata

 

[Caccamo]

From these old photos you can see the characteristic distribution of the tentacles.
They are not individual tentacles, but open from the exoskeleton as a “rose” type with a broad common base from where the tentacles arise. While glabrescens and Cristata for example have single tentacles that emerge directly from the exoskeleton.

 

[Lizbeli]

Yeah definitely not cristata. My final guess is a frammer. Curious what others think.

looks like a Frammer, a Frogspawn Hammer hybrid, definitely in the Fimbriaphyllia family (previously classified as Euphyliia)

Fimbriaphyllia cf paradivisa

Fimbriaphyllia is a genus, not a family. The family is Euphylliidae.

Fimbriaphyllia is a genus, not a family. The family is Euphylliidae.

my mistake, i meant genus.

 

[Caccamo]

Thankyou to all.
Studying the skeleton i think that it's a paradivisa.
