Sometimes the body is covered by a horny, but delicately transpar- ent envelope as in the case of Obelia (Fig. 32-9). Also many Coelenterata, especially the coral animals, secrete supporting structures at the basal (attached) end of the body. Usu- ally these are composed of calcareous mate- rial, but sometimes they have a protein com- position. (9) All Coelenterata are aquatic, chiefly marine. Classes of the Phylum Coelenterata. Three distinct classes have been evolved among coelenterate animals. These may be listed as follows: Class 1. The Hydrozoa (Hydra, Obelia, and Related Forms). At some stage in the life cycle, typical Hydrozoa tend to resemble Hydra. Many are colonial, however. Also many dis- play an alternation of generations, which is a phenomenon cpiite rare in the animal king- dom. In the case of Obelia (Fig. 32-9), for example, the asexual hydroid generation is represented by the colonial form of the or- ganism, in which the individual members of the colony display a hydralike form; whereas the sexual medusoid generation takes the.
