Anthozoa
Anthozoa is one of the three subphyla of Cnidaria, along with Medusozoa and Endocnidozoa. It includes Sessility (motility), sessile marine invertebrates and invertebrates of brackish water, such as sea anemones, Scleractinia, stony corals, soft corals and sea pens. Almost all adult anthozoans are attached to the seabed, while their larvae can disperse as plankton. The basic unit of the adult is the polyp (zoology), polyp, an individual animal consisting of a cylindrical column topped by a disc with a central mouth surrounded by tentacles. Sea anemones are mostly solitary, but the majority of corals are colony (biology), colonial, being formed by the budding of new polyps from an original, founding individual. Colonies of stony corals are strengthened by mainly aragonite and other materials, and can take various massive, plate-like, bushy or leafy forms. Members of Anthozoa possess cnidocytes, a feature shared among other cnidarians such as the jellyfish, box jellyfish, box jellies ...

Actinia Cari
''Actinia cari'' is a species of sea anemone in the family Actiniidae. It is native to the Mediterranean Sea where it is an uncommon species. Description ''Actinia cari'' grows to approximately 4-5 centimetres wide, and 8 centimetres high. It can fully retract its tentacles. It has a brown-green to reddish colour, with concentric, dark, longitudinal rings on the body wall, and is roughly cylindrical to conical in shape. Distribution and habitat This is a common species that occurs mainly in the Mediterranean Sea, and can also be found in the adjacent parts of the Atlantic Ocean. ''Actinia cari'' lives in rocky areas, attaching itself to rocks and the underside of smooth stones. It is a common species and is found in the infralittoral zone and the subtidal zone to a depth of a few metres. Behaviour This is a nocturnal species. It catches small prey with its tentacles. Venom This sea anemone contains toxins that can be extracted by the "milking" method using gel and ion exchange ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Actiniaria
Sea anemones ( ) are a group of predatory marine invertebrates constituting the order Actiniaria. Because of their colourful appearance, they are named after the '' Anemone'', a terrestrial flowering plant. Sea anemones are classified in the phylum Cnidaria, class Anthozoa, subclass Hexacorallia. As cnidarians, sea anemones are related to corals, jellyfish, tube-dwelling anemones, and '' Hydra''. Unlike jellyfish, sea anemones do not have a medusa stage in their life cycle. A typical sea anemone is a single polyp attached to a hard surface by its base, but some species live in soft sediment, and a few float near the surface of the water. The polyp has a columnar trunk topped by an oral disc with a ring of tentacles and a central mouth. The tentacles can be retracted inside the body cavity or expanded to catch passing prey. They are armed with cnidocytes (stinging cells). In many species, additional nourishment comes from a symbiotic relationship with single-celled dinoflagella ...
