Christmas tree hydroid
The Christmas tree hydroid is a small, branching sea creature that grows in colonies on rocks and hard surfaces in shallow water. It is found in warm seas around the world, and it is common in the Mediterranean Sea. Scientists have used it to study how animals catch their prey.1

Tsela ya go e lemoga
- Colonies have many branching stems, up to 30 cm high, arranged in a tree-like shape1
- The stalks are dark brown or blackish, but are often coated with algae and diatoms, giving them a muddy look1
- The tiny whitish polyps are tinged with red1
- Each polyp has many slender tentacles at its base and up to twelve tentacles with knobbed tips around its mouth1

Contact with a rope on which this hydroid was growing caused an acute, painful skin inflammation (dermatitis) in several people. Contact with the stinging cells on its tentacles is the cause.1
E kotsi go le kae go batho?
Kotsi go batho: E botlhokoE ka utlwisa botlhoko tota, mme go seoka thata gore e nne masisi.Several people who touched a rope covered in this hydroid got an acute, painful dermatitis. No deaths are known.1
Fa e tlhaba
- Tswa mo metsing mme o tlose mesela (tentacles) epe fela e e setseng (ka ditlelafo kgotsa ka lesela).
- Ya dijelifishi tsa lebokoso tsa tropiki: tshela asene mo mafelong a a tlhabilweng bonnye metsotswana e le 30, bitsa thuso mme o ipaakanyetse go dira CPR. Ya dibluebottle le tse dingwe tse dintsi: tlhatswa ka metsi a lewatle, morago ka metsi a a mogote go fokotsa botlhoko.
Ka gale leletsa nomoro ya gago ya tshoganyetso pele (112, 000, 911). Se ke kaelo e e akaretsang ya thuso ya ntlha, ga se kgakololo ya bongaka. Motheo wa thuso ya ntlha

- O se ka wa ama, wa tshwara kgotsa wa tshwenya phologolo ya naga, le fa e le e nnye, le fa e lebega e robetse kgotsa e sule.
- E fe sebaka. Fa o kopana le yone, ritibala, boela morago ka bonya mme o e tlogele e tsamaye ka tsela ya yone.
- Fa e nngwe e go tlhaba: ritibala, o se ka wa tshikinyega, leletsa nomoro ya gago ya tshoganyetso (112, 000, 911) kgotsa o ye bookelong ka bonako. Gopola gore e ne e lebega jang, setshwantsho se a thusa.
Ga e go batle. E dirisa botlhole jwa yone go tshwara dijo kgotsa go itshireletsa, mme e rata go iphitlha go feta. Go le gontsi ka go nna o babalesegile

Dintlha
It has spread around the world largely through people's maritime activities, by attaching to ships and structures.1
It has been used in research into how animals capture their prey.1
Colonies grow by budding, which forms new feeding polyps.1
Its free-swimming larvae drift with the plankton before settling on a hard surface.1

- Masea
- Females release up to six eggs. Each embryo develops within a day or so into a free-swimming larva called a planula, which later settles on a hard surface to start a new colony.1
