Actinostola callosa
[edit]- ... that in Norwegian fiords, the sea anemone Actinostola callosa feeds heavily on the helmet jellyfish? Source: "A. callosa was found to be medusivorous. Its biomass and high abundance seem to be correlated with a mass occurrence of its important local prey, the coronate medusa Periphylla periphylla."

solid article on good sources, offline sources accepted AGF, no copyvio obvious. - The hook is fine and sourced, but I confess that the term "abyssal depth" caught me more. I also like the "medusivorous" from the source. Will approve the original if nothing else comes up. The image is beautiful and could be used. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:41, 29 June 2017 (UTC)
- Well, you may understand that "medusivorous" means eating jellyfish but most people won't. This hook refers to these sea anemones at the bottom of Norwegian fiords. I'm not sure how deep these are, but the "abyssal depths" applies to mid-ocean. I thought the image a bit dark and would prefer to leave the hook as it is. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 12:30, 29 June 2017 (UTC)
