The night anemone is a sea anemone, a soft animal related to jellyfish that attaches itself to the seabed. It lives in shallow seas in the central Indo-West Pacific, including Indonesia, the Philippines and southern Japan. It is venomous, and its sting can cause a painful injury that lasts a long time.1

Co renconuscher el

  • Has a broad base that attaches it to the seabed.1
  • Has branching, stalked outgrowths called pseudo-tentacles, which vary a lot between individuals.1
  • Some individuals look like smooth discs, branching coral, or dead coral rock covered in algae.1
  • The mouth ring has up to 160 long tentacles, seen when it is feeding at night.1

Savens confundì cun: It is often mistaken for corals, algae or dead coral rock, because it copies their shape and colour. During the day it pulls its mouth and tentacles inside, so it may not look like a sea anemone at all.1

Tge fa ses tissi?

Its venom contains several haemolytic toxins, which break down red blood cells. Human contact can cause severe dermatitis, with swelling and ulceration of the affected skin that may last for months. On rare occasions it causes acute kidney damage, and it is the first sea anemone whose venom has been shown to do this. The venom does not appear to affect other major organs.1

Its sting is painful and long-lasting. On rare occasions it can cause acute kidney damage.1

Tge fa el, cura ch'el ha tema?

It uses camouflage, mimicry and masquerade to blend into its surroundings, which helps it deceive prey and confuse predators.1

Sch'el piztga

  • Va or da l'aua e prenda davent las tentaclas (cun manetschas u cun in tschop).
  • Tar medusas cubicas tropicalas: versa aschieu sin las piztgadas durant almain 30 secundas, clama agid e sajas pront da far ina reanimaziun. Tar galeras portugaisas e las bleras autras: lava cun aua da mar, lura cun aua chauda cunter las dolurs.

Clama adina l'emprim tes numer d'urgenza (112, 000, 911). Quai è in cussegl general d'emprim agid, betg in cussegl medicinal. Basa da l'emprim agid

Resta en segirezza

  • Na tutga, na piglia e na tizza mai in animal selvadi, gnanc in pitschen, ed era sch'el para da durmir u d'esser mort.
  • Dà spazi a l'animal. Sche ti scuntras in, resta calm, va plaun enavos e lascha ir el per sia via.

Fatgs

1

It was the first sea anemone found to have venom that damages the kidneys and can cause acute renal failure.1

2

Its venom kills shrimp and breaks down sheep red blood cells in laboratory tests.1

3

Its pseudo-tentacles contain symbiotic dinoflagellates, tiny organisms that photosynthesise, so it gets some energy from light.1

4

It hides its tentacles and mouth during the day, when it spreads out its pseudo-tentacles to catch sunlight.1

Colonies are likely clones formed by asexual reproduction, possibly by fragmentation when the anemone moves across the seabed.1
