Euphyllia divisa
Introduction Euphyllia divisa (reclassified in 2017 as '''Fimbriaphyllia divisa'''), commonly known as '''frogspawn coral''' and sometimes misspelled ''Euphyllia divis'''i'''a'', is a large-polyped stony coral native to the Indo-Pacific islands. It is a commonly kept species in the marine aquarium hobby. The related coral ''Fimbriaphyllia paradivisa'' is frequently misidentified as frogspawn leading to some confusion. ''Fimbriaphyllia divisa'' has a corallite skeleton with a flabello-meandroid "wall" structure whereas ''Fimbriaphyllia paradivisa'' has a tree-like branching structure with separate corallites.
Distribution and habitat It is native to the Indo-Pacific, Australia, Southeast Asia, the Ryukyu Islands and East China Sea, the Solomon Islands, Fiji, and Palau
