#11 Blasto (pretty sure Merletti)

3 isn't Galaxea, notice corallite size and phaceloid growth form (as opposed to fasciculate in Galaxea)

11 isn't Blasto, notice ovate corallites and lack of vescicles

8 isn't Leptastrea, notice corallite size and calice largely filled by coenosarc/mantle (as opposed to oral disc in Leptastrea)
