Heterodactyla hemprichii is a species of sea anemone in the family Thalassianthidae, and was first formally described in 1834 by Christian Gottfried Ehrenberg. [2] [3]
This sea anemone does not host any varieties of clownfish, but has been associated with some species of commensal anemone shrimp. [4] This is a medium to large species of anemone characterized by "bunches of grape-like nematospheres," radially arranged, and densest on the outermost edges of its oral disc. [4]
