Pale brown. Adherent base with cylindrical body. Thick body-wall with subcuticular layer of mesogloea that connects with the general mesogloea by strands crossing the ectoderm. The thick mesogloea contains many lacunae and cell-islets. Well-developed endoderm with large endodermal and ectodermal bays. Mesogloeal sphincter is very strong, surrounded with fibrous-looking mesogloea different from the rest of the body-wall. Closely lined cells present in the cavities (Ref. 89044).
Found in rock pools between tide marks (Ref. 89044).
Life cycle and mating behavior
परिपक्व अवधि | पुनरुत्पत्ति | मछलीऔ का अंडे देना | Eggs | Fecundity | Larvae
Members of the class Anthozoa are either gonochoric or hermaphroditic. Mature gametes are shed into the coelenteron and spawned through the mouth. Life cycle: The zygote develops into a planktonic planula larva. Metamorphosis begins with early morphogenesis of tentacles, septa and pharynx before larval settlement on the aboral end.
