Forms large colonies, commonly 200 to 300 cm in diameter and composed of anastomosed vertical plates, which may reach 200 cm in height. In life, colonies have a characteristics light brown, color, with white growing edges. If touched, a sharp sting can be felt when coming into contact with soft skin (Ref. 269).

Members of the order Anthoathecata are mostly colonial A-form hydroids. Life cycle: The zygote develops into planula inside the gonophore and is later released as an actinula which metamorphoses into polyp stage.
