New records of stony corals from the Philippines previously known from peripheral areas of the Indo-Pacific

New Philippine records of coral species are described here namely Cantharellus noumeae Hoeksema & Best, 1984; Stylophora kuehlmanni Scheer & Pillai, 1983; and Acropora halmaherae Wallace & Wolstenholme, 1998. Stylophora danae Milne Edwards & Haime, is also added again to the Philippi...
