Native Temperature Range:

[Russky Island] Water temperature during low tides ranged from 20ºC in Ajaks Bay to 25.5ºC in Melkovodnaya Bay (Voevoda Bay) (Ivanova et al. 2009) [Kunashir Island] Average water temperature at the Pacific coast of Kunashir Island in Kurile Islands is 16ºC, accoding to the Marine Atlas (1953) (cited in Kussakin 1975) and in the Sakhaline Region Atlas (1967) (cited in Kussakin 1975) . In winter an abrupt water chilling down to 0°C and even lower is observed all over the Kuriles. (Kussakin 1975)

Native Salinity Range:

[Russky Island] Maximum salinity was 30‰ in Karpinsky Bay and 25‰ in Novik and Voevoda Bays. The highest salinity for the area (35‰) was recorded in a shallow lagoon at Cape Akhlestysheva (Ivanova et al. 2009)

Reproduction

Fertilization Mode:

internal

Reproduction Mode:

Gonochoristic/ dioecious

Spawning Type:

NA

Development Mode:

Lecithotrophic planktonic larva (non-feeding)

Asexual Reproduction:

See details

Reproduction Details:

RELATED: [Sertularella turgida] Releases sperm into the water but retains its eggs for fertilization (Sept 1999) [Obelia sp. as a representative example of class Hydrozoa] Medusae have separate sexes. Males release sperm; eggs are fertilized while still in the gonads. Planula lavae (Kozloff 1990) *Note: entered as lecithotrophic because planula larvae are non-feeding and planktonic; other sources for Obelia spp. contradict where eggs are fertilized (see two Obelia entries) [Hydroids] Rapidly colonize through asexual proliferation (Denny & Gaines 2007)

Habitat Details:

Found on tsunami debris: on a barnacle, Semibalanus cariosus, attached to a floating dock (Choong and Calder 2013) Rocky littoral zone (Ivanova & Tsurpalo 2013) Attached to algae (Ruthensteiner et al. 2008)

Trophic Level:

Suspension feeder

Trophic Details:

RELATED: [Hydroids] Suspension-feeding or carnivorous (Denny & Gaines 2007)

Forage Mode:

Generalist

Forage Details:

RELATED: [Hdroids] They consume completely small animals like small crustacea, mollusc, annelida and juvenile fish. (Uchida 1961)

Natural Control:

RELATED: PREDATION [Hydroids] [Predation] Hydranths may be eaten by nudibranchs, pyconogonids, fish, and the polychaete Procerastea halleziana (Denny & Gaines 2007)

Associated Species:

RELATED: EPIBIONT [Hydroids] [Epibiont] Act as microhabitats for many other species, including other hydroids, gammarid amphiods, and mussel recruits (Denny & Gaines 2007) PARASITES [Hydroids] [Parasites] Pycnogonid larvae may parasitize and develop in hydranths (Denny & Gaines 2007)
