Marrus Orthocanna
''Marrus orthocanna'' is a species of pelagic siphonophore, a colonial animal composed of a complex arrangement of zooids, some of which are polyps and some medusae. Swimming independently in the mid-ocean, it lives in the Arctic and other cold, deep waters.Siphonophores
Retrieved 2011-10-01.
It is a colonial creature that is born from a single egg which is fertilized. Later on, a protozoan forms that eventually grows to form more duplicating members of the colony. It belongs to the order and the genus ''Marrus'', which also includes ''M. antarcticus, M. claudanielis, and M. orthocannoides''.

Nanomia Bijuga
''Nanomia bijuga'' is a species of siphonophores in the family Agalmatidae, a colonial organism like other siphonophores, which possess specialized zooids such as the jet-propulsive nectophores. They can be found in coastal and open-ocean environments in the North Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, occupying the epipelagic and the mesopelagic zones of the ocean. ''N. bijuga'' participates in the Diel Vertical Migration, moving up to the epipelagic zone to feed on plankton at night and then back down to the mesopelagic zone during the day. Taxonomy ''Nanomia bijuga'' was first scientifically documented by the French zoologist Félix Dujardin in 1843. Its initial description marked a significant milestone in the understanding of these colonial marine organisms, shedding light on their complex biology and ecological roles within oceanic ecosystems. ''N. bijuga'' was described by Italian zoologist Stefano Delle Chiaje in 1844, as '' Physsophora bijuga''. Over time, advancements in g ...
