FIGURE 1. Eucheilota medusifera? (Torrey, 1902). A) Hydrothecae and a developing gonangium; note the accumulation of cnidocysts in the distal end of the latter. B) Hydrotheca and stolon; a new hydranth is budding. C) A detail of the intertentacular web showing the typical sausage-like cnidocysts; these may be lacking in some polyps. D) Sausage-like merotrichous haploneme. The real armature of this cnidocyst very likely consists of a dextral helix of two or three separate strands of small spines with several coils; there could be minute spines in the distal tube as well. Scale bar: 100 µm (A, B); 21 µm (D); C, not at scale
