Cnidaria is a phylum of aquatic (mostly marine) animals that includes jellyfish, sea anenomes, coral and hydra. There are two major body plans of cnidarians, free-swimming medusa (jellyfish) and sessile polyps (anenomes, coral). Their radially symmetrical bodies consist of mesoglea, a non-living jelly-like substance, sandwiched between two layers of epithelial cells, usually only one cell thick each. (Wikipedia)

disclaimer: i do not own or claim to own any pictures posted here. also, although this blog was designed to cover all of the phylum, i find more photos of jellyfish than any other group of cnidarians. (i also think they are the most fascinating, both to me and many others)

contribute.

Obviously, all submissions must be directly and clearly related to Cnidarians, and should be appropriate for all viewers.

I love being able to post original work, so don’t be shy, send in your photos, artwork, or any information or link you would like to share. I will always indicate proper credit, and if you include the credit information with your submission, rest assured, it will appear with the post.

Thank you!
