Cnidophores are the long defense tentacles of the prey hydroid Eudendrium racemosum (Cnidaria, Hydrozoa), which are covered with holotrichous isorhiza nematocysts.
The holotrichous isorhiza nematocysts of Eudendrium racemosum cnidophores do not have a hard, mechanically penetrating, proximal apparatus of stylets; instead, they have long flexible tubules covered regularly with short spines.
