The discovery of rare prostaglandins in soft corals has initiated a general interest
in this group as an easily available source of several 'wonder drugs'. During the
present study four species of soft corals from the family Alcyoniidae are described
in the light of scanning electromicrographs of the sclerites to facilitate easy
identification. Although 28 species are recorded earlier, three species listed in
the present account are new records to the Gulf of Mannar Biosphere Reserve.
