Description: Characters: Colonies are usually flat and subplocoid. Corallites on convex surfaces are clearly subplocoid, those on flat surfaces are crowded, becoming cerioid and irregular in shape, and may have up to three centres. Septa are exsert, thin and irregular; they plunge steeply inside the wall. Paliform lobes are poorly developed or absent.

Colour: A wide range, usually with contrasting corallite walls and oral discs.

Similar species: Favia matthaii, which also has irregular septa but corallites are circular and smaller. See also Favites russelli.

Habitat: Upper reef slopes.

Abundance: Uncommon.
