Sea Plume
Antillogorgia americana
Sighting evidence at Flat Island Reef, Sint Maarten / Saint-Martin
Tall colonies of sea plumes sway rhythmically in the surge at Flat Island, their branching forms providing perches for flamingo tongue cowries and nursery habitat for juvenile reef fish. The colonies here grow taller than at most sheltered Sint Maarten sites, benefiting from the elevated current and nutrient supply.
