FIGURE 11 in Carcinoecium-forming Epizoanthus [Hexacorallia: Zoantharia] and the biology of E. papillosus in the eastern Atlantic, with special reference to the cnidom

FIGURE 11. Unexploded cnidae of Epizoanthus papillosus. A, p-mastigophore (large type), from mesenteric filament of freeliving colony, polyp 4S; B, p-mastigophore (small type), from mesenteric filament of carcinoecium, polyp 3L; C, holotrich (oblong shape), from mesenteric filament of free-living polyp 4L; D, holotrich (ellipsoid shape), from mesenteric filament of free-living colony, polyp 4S; E, basitrich (curved), from tentacle of free-living colony, polyp 5S; F, spirocyst from tentacle of free-living colony, polyp 3L. Polyps are identified by the number of polyps in the colony (3–5) and whether they were the largest (L) or smallest (S) polyp in a colony of 3, 4 or 5 polyps. Scale bars = 10 µm.
