Note  Diagnosis: Erect, branching or stolonal hydroid colonies, monosiphonic or polysiphonic. In branching colonies, branches and hydranth pedicels adnate to other branches over part or almost all their length. Perisarc firm, terminating near hydranth base, tubes of sister-branches nested. Hydranths spindle- to club-shaped; filiform tentacles scattered over much of hydranth body. Gonads formed within perisarc tubes of branchlets or at the end of branchlets and thus eplacing a hydranth. Gonads gastrodermal. [details]
