British Sea Anemones [PDF]

Nature, 1929
WHILST in some branches of science, especially physics, there are so many workers in the field that monographs can be continually revised, in others many years must pass by before an expert can bring our knowledge up-to-date. Dr. T. A. Stephenson, one of the two leading workers on anemones at the present time, is to be congratulated on his effort to ...

Molecular tuning of sea anemone stinging

eLife, 2023
Abstract Jellyfish and sea anemones fire single-use, venom-covered barbs to immobilize prey or predators. We previously showed that the anemone Nematostella vectensis uses a specialized voltage-gated calcium (Ca V ) channel to trigger stinging in ...

Insights into the lifestyle and preservation of Arenactinia ipuensis n. gen. et n. sp. (Anthozoa, Actiniaria) from the Early Silurian (Ipu Formation, Parnaíba Basin, Brazil)

Earth History and Biodiversity
Soft-bodied cnidarians are scarce in the fossil record and only a few sea anemones are documented in Paleozoic, mainly in Konservat Lagerstätten. We present a new cnidarian taxon exhibiting wide intraspecific morphological diversity: Arenactinia ipuensis
