(a) These colonial polyps are members of class Hydrozoa.
(b) Many species of jellies (classScyphozoa), including thespecies pictured here, are bioluminescent. The largest scyphozoans have tentaclesmore than 100 m long dangling from a bell-shaped body up to 2 m in diameter.
(c) The sea wasp (Chironex fleckeri) is a member of class Cubozoa. Its poison,which can subdue fish andother large prey, is more potent than cobra venom.
(d) Sea anemones and othermembers of class Anthozoaexist only as polyps.
Lophophore
Lophophore
Lophophore
Ectoprocts, such as this sea mat (Membraniporamembranacea), are colonial lophophorates.
In phoronids such as Phoronis hippocrepia, the lophophore and mouth are at one end of an elongated trunk.
Brachiopods have a hinged shell. The two parts of the shell are dorsal and ventral.
(a) (b) (c)
Scorpions have pedipalps that are pincers specialized for defense and the capture of food. The tip of the tail bears a poisonous stinger.
(a) Dust mites are ubiquitous scavengers in human dwellings but are harmless except to those people who are allergic to them (colorized SEM).
(b) Web-building spiders are generally most active during the daytime.
