SUMMARY
This very delicate species is easily distinguished from its more common southern Australian congener, Obelia dichotoma (Linnaeus, 1758), by its smaller size and almost invariably transverse diaphragm. The coenosarc of the hydrorhiza and stems and the tentacles of the specimens are packed with zooxanthellae.
