An organism with a body structure resembling that of a coral.
From Greek 'korax' (crow/coral) + 'morphe' (form, shape). This combining pattern is common in biology to describe physical resemblances between organisms.
The root 'korax' originally meant crow but became associated with coral in scientific naming—a perfect example of how the same word can travel through different meanings in different contexts!
