Filifera
Filifera is a suborder of hydrozoans in the order Anthoathecata. They are found in marine, brackish and freshwater habitats. Characteristics Members of this suborder are characterised by the filiform tentacles of the polyps which do not terminate in knobs. The rose corals, family Stylasteridae, secrete calcium carbonate exoskeletons around a network of stolons. Families According to the World Register of Marine Species, the following families are found in this suborder : *Australomedusidae Russell, 1971 * Axoporidae Boschma, 1951 † * Balellidae Stechow, 1922 *Bougainvilliidae Lütken, 1850 * Bythotiaridae Maas, 1905 *Clathrozoellidae Peña Cantero, Vervoort & Watson, 2003 * Cordylophoridae von Lendenfeld, 1885 * Cytaeididae L. Agassiz, 1862 * Eucodoniidae Schuchert, 1996 *Eudendriidae L. Agassiz, 1862 * Heterotentaculidae Schuchert, 2010 *Hydractiniidae L. Agassiz, 1862 * Jeanbouilloniidae Pagès, Flood & Youngbluth, 2006 * Magapiidae Schuchert & Bouillon, 2009 * Niobiidae ...

Cnidaria
Cnidaria () is a phylum under kingdom Animalia containing over 11,000 species of aquatic animals found both in Fresh water, freshwater and Marine habitats, marine environments, predominantly the latter. Their distinguishing feature is cnidocytes, specialized cells that they use mainly for capturing prey. Their bodies consist of mesoglea, a non-living jelly-like substance, sandwiched between two layers of epithelium that are mostly one cell (biology), cell thick. Cnidarians mostly have two basic body forms: swimming Medusa (biology), medusae and Sessility (motility), sessile polyp (zoology), polyps, both of which are Symmetry (biology)#Radial symmetry, radially symmetrical with mouths surrounded by tentacles that bear cnidocytes. Both forms have a single Body orifice, orifice and body cavity that are used for digestion and respiration (physiology), respiration. Many cnidarian species produce Colony (biology), colonies that are single organisms composed of medusa-like or polyp (z ...
