White Staghorn Coral - Acropora nobilis - black base

The coral Acropora nobilis, commonly known as “Staghorn coral” due to its thin branches resembling deer antlers, is a species widely distributed in the Indo-Pacific region, particularly around the Solomon Islands, where this piece originates. This coral is distinguished by its tangled colonies that form complex and airy structures. Its color generally ranges from cream to pale yellow, with whitish tips that remain visible, indicating the active growth of the species. This particular piece has a naturally balanced shape, making it ideal as a curiosity object.
As this coral is protected under the Washington Convention (CITES), it comes with its CITES certificate, ensuring its legality and compliance with international regulations on the trade of endangered species.
