[Cnidaria] mystery polyp appears on my hard drive and is identified

[Steve Cook]

Hi Claudia

Yes, I posted it to the mailing list last Sept. I had a couple of 
responses, including one from Allen Collins, who identified it as Lipkea.

The image was taken in Fiordland, New Zealand by Ian Skipworth, and is 
(very roughly) about 20 mm in diameter. No specimen unfortunately.

Cheers

Steve Cook
