Eudendrium irregulare [Eudendrium irregulare]
Description
Divers often notice this species as delicate, branching hydroid colonies that rise like tiny underwater “brushes” from rocks, wrecks, or other hard surfaces. Individual polyps can look like small, upright stems, giving the colony a lively, feathery texture as currents pass.
