Marginopora cf vertebralis (4) Quoy & Gaimard, 1830

This foram forms disks up to at least 15mm in diameter and is often found attached to Halimeda plants in lagoon algae patches. It is likely the same species as those figured as sp. 1, sp. 2 and sp. 3, but we separated these out due to the thin and irregular margins on the test.
