Soft corals, gorgonians, anemones, and zoanthids seem to be less well documented than stony
corals. Listed below are the
only Hawaiian species that that I have found references to so far.
Hawaiian reefs are nutrient poor and thus have significantly fewer filter
feeding animals such as soft corals, but I
assume there really are more than this! Where a species is reported as
being endemic to
Hawaii this has been indicated with
Soft corals and gorgonians
