Characters: Colonies are usually compact clumps composed of uniform, thick, primarily upright branches with flattened ends. Verrucae are uniform, rounded and smooth.

Similar species: Pocillopora verrucosa, which has thinner branches in comparable environments and more protuberant corallites. See also P. capitata, which has tall cylindrical branches and elongate verrucae. Pocillopora eydouxi has similar skeletal characters but colonies from similar environments have larger branches.
Habitat: Shallow reef environments.
