Abstract
    Three previously described species of stony corals were collected by the Chatham Islands 1954 Expedition. The occurrences of these are given. Growth forms of Flabellum knoxi are described in particular relation to the living position of this coral. Living position of other Flabellum is discussed and evidence contributing towards identification of the living position is presented. Adaptive growth resulting from living positions is considered as reflected in the form of the corallum. Developmental patterns of abnormal coralla are described in relation to the external causal stimuli.
