Acrophytum daviger Hickson, a little known soft coral from South African waters, is redescribed from one of Hickson's original specimens.The specimen is designated as a paralectotype.Photographs and sclerite drawings supplement Hickson's sparsely illustrated paper, as do histological data from an additional specimen containing an unusual reproductive stage.A comparison is made between A. daviger and Minabea robusta Utinomi and Imahara, but the two taxa appear distinct
