Description

Found two colonies in shallow water. Roughly apricot-sized. The colonies are cylindrical but almost look like plicate, or built from sausage-shaped elements around a superior dimple. Also, it looks like the tentacles are in a veil, like the Ctenophoran order Lobata.

This is the first time I see this genus, and my ID may be wrong.
