Diagnosis Medusa mostly with an apical projection of variable size. Manubrium voluminous, connected to radial canals by mesenteries. Mouth with extensively folded and crenulated margin. Gonads on interradial walls of manubrium, bipartite but with broad connection in upper half, with with various degrees of folding, no or only few interradial pits. Radial canal very broad, often jagged. With many tentacles arising from elongated bulbs, laterally compressed; small bulbs or growth arrested tentacles often present. With or without ocelli.
Hydroids colonial, arising from creeping stolons; hydrocauli covered by perisarc, not or only sparingly branched, stems monosiphonic. Perisarc extends onto hydranth body as a more or less gelatinous pseudohydrotheca which does not envelop the tentacles. Hydranths with a conical hypostome and one whorl of ﬁliform tentacles. Gonophores develop on cauli or stolons, liberated as medusae.
