Coloration varies greatly depending on the individual, and the same coral can exhibit several different colors in the centers and edges of its corallites.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe name Favia is still commonly used in the aquarium trade, even though many corals from the Indo-Pacific previously classified under the genus Favia are now classified under genera such as Dipsastraea.
