Description

Ceriantheomorphe represents a group of tube anemones with distinct morphological features, including a two-part body structure consisting of a scapus (a smooth or ornamented tube) and a capitulum (containing the mouth and tentacles). These anemones are known for their striking colors and patterns. They play a role in the marine ecosystem as both prey and predators, feeding on small organisms that come into contact with their tentacles.
