(2000). Thalassianthidae. http://tolweb.org/Thalassianthidae/18326 Research has shown that three species of sea anemones belonging to the family Thalassianthidae - (''Cryptodendrum adhaesivum'', ''Heterodactyla hemprichii'' and ''Thalassianthus aster'') - contain type 2 sodium channel peptide toxins capable of causing lethality to freshwater crabs. In addition, high molecular weight toxins appear to be a new type of toxin in the Thalassianthidae family of sea anemone Sea anemones are a group of predation, predatory marine invertebrates of the order ...

Sea Anemone
Sea anemones are a group of predatory marine invertebrates of 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 (genus), Hydra''. Unlike jellyfish, sea anemones do not have a Jellyfish#Life history and behavior, medusa stage in their life cycle. A typical sea anemone is a single polyp (zoology), 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 sy ...
