Coral \Cor"al\, n. [Of. coral, F, corail, L. corallum, coralium,
   fr. Gr. kora`llion.]
   1. (Zool.) The hard parts or skeleton of various Anthozoa,
      and of a few Hydrozoa. Similar structures are also formed
      by some Bryozoa.
      [1913 Webster]

   Note: The large stony corals forming coral reefs belong to
         various genera of Madreporaria, and to the hydroid
         genus, Millepora. The red coral, used in jewelry, is
         the stony axis of the stem of a gorgonian (Corallium
         rubrum) found chiefly in the Mediterranean. The fan
         corals, plume corals, and sea feathers are species
         of Gorgoniacea, in which the axis is horny.
         Organ-pipe coral is formed by the genus Tubipora, an
         Alcyonarian, and black coral is in part the axis of
         species of the genus Antipathes. See Anthozoa,
         Madrepora.

      separate islands, usually inclosing a lagoon. See Atoll.

   br[ae]gen; akin to LG. br[aum]gen, bregen, D. brein, and
   perh. to Gr. bre`gma, brechmo`s, the upper part of head, if

   1. (Anat.) The whitish mass of soft matter (the center of the
      nervous system, and the seat of consciousness and
      volition) which is inclosed in the cartilaginous or bony
      cranium of vertebrate animals. It is simply the anterior
      termination of the spinal cord, and is developed from
      three embryonic vesicles, whose cavities are connected
      with the central canal of the cord; the cavities of the
      vesicles become the central cavities, or ventricles, and
      the walls thicken unequally and become the three segments,
      the fore-, mid-, and hind-brain.
      [1913 Webster]

   Note: In the brain of man the cerebral lobes, or largest part
         of the forebrain, are enormously developed so as to
         overhang the cerebellum, the great lobe of the
         hindbrain, and completely cover the lobes of the
         midbrain. The surface of the cerebrum is divided into
         irregular ridges, or convolutions, separated by grooves
         (the so-called fissures and sulci), and the two
         hemispheres are connected at the bottom of the
         longitudinal fissure by a great transverse band of
         nervous matter, the corpus callosum, while the two
         halves of the cerebellum are connected on the under
         side of the brain by the bridge, or pons Varolii.
