Acropora papillare
Latypov, 1992

Characters:
Colonies are clumps of irregularly curved branches on thick encrusting bases. Axial corallites are small and thick walled.

Similar Species: Acropora aspera, which has similar corallites but lacks an encrusting base, A. abrotanoides, which has a similar growth-form but has rasp-like radial corallites and A. loisettea, which has thin straight branches.
