Eudendrium cyathiferum [Eudendrium cyathiferum]
Description
Eudendrium cyathiferum is often encountered as a branching hydroid with cup-like polyp structures that stand out along the colony. When currents pass, the polyps can look more pronounced, and the colony’s delicate architecture makes it a great subject for close-up viewing.
