Description[]

Look at that purple ruffle (branchia, fine,) Look at those long, delicate, magenta cnideria! This photobiont is everything I wanted an organism to be when I was five. It might still be everything I want in an organism - except it could provide definitive evidence of non-clonal reproduction. --Jane Van Susteren, Exobiology Lead
