Eudendrium deciduum [Eudendrium deciduum]
Description
Divers may find this species as a branching hydroid colony that forms on rocks, shells, or other hard ground. Its polyps give the colony a textured, slightly uneven look, and the whole colony can sway gently with surge, making it easy to spot once you’re scanning the substrate.
