| Abstract: |
The aim of this project was to create a guide which facilitates identification of most anemone species in the vicinity of Sarasota Bay. To this end an attempt was made to collect representative individuals of all species present from several local communities. The collected specimens internal anatomy, cnidome, and external characteristics were examined to confirm identities. A description of these features was created for each local species along with a discussion of the literature pertinent to their identification. A short synopsis of the species known range and ecology was also included in each description. A dichotomous key was also created to aid identification. Ten species were found nine of which were identified to the species level. The unidentified specimen is thought to be in the family Actiniidae but more research is needed to determine its actual identity. The species found were Aiptasia pallida, Aiptasia tagetes, Anthopleura krebsii, Anthopleura pallida, Anthopleura texaensis, Actinia bermudensis, Calliactis tricolor, Bunodeopsis globulifera, and Telmatactis vernonia. |
