Diagnosis 
Hydroids sessile, hydrorhiza stolonal, reticular or encrusting and covered by naked coenosarc; hydranths polymorphic; gastrozooid without tentacles; dactylozooids with four or more capitate tentacles, sometimes filiform; gonophores on gonozooids or gastro-gonozooids; reproduction by fixed sporosacs, eumedusoids or free medusae. Medusa umbrella more or less bell-shaped; with or without radial exumbrellar furrows; centripetal tracks or exumbrellar rows of refringent spots; with marginal nematocyst ring; marginal tentacles absent or present, solid and nematocysts concentrated at tips; four radial canals and circular canal; manubrium tubular or bottle-shaped, with mouth arms with terminal nematocyst clusters, gonads adradial or interradial.  [details]
