What is Zoantharia?
{{No sources|from=July 2022}} {{Automatic taxobox | name = Zoanthids | image = Parazoanth2.JPG | image_caption = ''[[Parazoanthus axinellae]]'' | taxon = Zoantharia | diversity_link = | diversity = }} '''Zoantharia''' is an [[order (biology)|order]] of [[Anthozoa]]. Unlike the [[stony coral]]s, these species do not have a hard [[skeleton]]. Most are very small. Some species form [[colony (biology)|colonies]]. Zoanthids can be distinguished from other colonial anthozoans and soft corals. Most of them (but not the family Zoanthidae) include sand and other bits of material in their tissue to help build their structure. The main characteristic of the order is that their tentacles are organised in two distinct rows. == Other websites == {{commons-inline|Zoantharia}} {{wikispecies-inline|Zoantharia}} {{taxonbar|from=Q1362080}} {{authority control}} [[Category:Cnidarians]] {{biology-stub}}
