''Xenia'' is a genus of photosynthetic soft marine coral resembling a mushroom, with "arms" coming out from the top that end in many-fingered "hands". It is unique among corals because of its ability to use its "hands" to "pulse" or push water away from the colony in a constant, grabbing motion. Common Names include: Xenia Elongata, Fast-Pulse Xenia, Xenia is sometimes referred to a Pulse Corals. ==Species== The World Register of Marine Species lists the following species:〔 *''Xenia actuosa'' Verseveldt & Tursch, 1979 *''Xenia amparoi'' Roxas, 1933 *''Xenia antarctica'' Kükenthal, 1902 *''Xenia bauiana'' May, 1899 *''Xenia crassa'' Schenk, 1896 *''Xenia crispitentaculata'' Verseveldt, 1977 *''Xenia cylindrica'' Roxas, 1933 *''Xenia danae'' Verrill, 1869 *''Xenia dayi'' Tixier-Durivault, 1959 *''Xenia delicata'' Roxas, 1933 *''Xenia depressa'' Kükenthal, 1909 *''Xenia distorta'' Tixier-Durivault, 1966 *''Xenia elongata'' Dana, 1846 *''Xenia fimbriata'' Utinomi, 1955 *''Xenia fisheri'' Roxas, 1933 *''Xenia flava'' Roxas, 1933 *''Xenia florida'' (Lesson, 1826) *''Xenia fusca'' Schenk, 1896 *''Xenia garciae'' Bourne, 1894 *''Xenia grasshoffi'' Verseveldt, 1974 *''Xenia hicksoni'' Ashworth, 1899 *''Xenia humilis'' Verseveldt, 1977 *''Xenia intermedia'' Roxas, 1933 *''Xenia kukenthali'' Roxas, 1933 *''Xenia kusimotoensis'' Utinomi, 1955 *''Xenia lepida'' Verseveldt, 1971 *''Xenia lillieae'' Roxas, 1933 *''Xenia medusoides'' May, 1899 *''Xenia membranacea'' Schenk, 1896 *''Xenia mucosa'' Verseveldt & Tursch, 1979 *''Xenia multipinnata'' (Tixier-Durivault, 1966) *''Xenia multispiculata'' Kükenthal, 1909 *''Xenia nana'' Hickson, 1930 *''Xenia novaebritanniae'' Ashworth, 1900 *''Xenia novaecaledoniae'' Verseveldt, 1974 *''Xenia plicata'' Schenk, 1896 *''Xenia puertogalerae'' Roxas, 1933 *''Xenia pulsitans'' Kent, 1893 *''Xenia quinqueserta'' May, 1899 *''Xenia rubens'' Schenk, 1896 *''Xenia samoensis'' Kölliker *''Xenia sansibariana'' May, 1899 *''Xenia schenki'' Roxas, 1933 *''Xenia sexseriata'' Verseveldt, 1977 *''Xenia spicata'' Li, 1982 *''Xenia stellifera'' Verseveldt, 1977 *''Xenia ternatana'' Schenk, 1896 *''Xenia tripartita'' Roxas, 1933 *''Xenia tumbatuana'' May, 1898 *''Xenia umbellata'' Lamarck, 1816 *''Xenia viridis'' Schenk, 1896 *''Xenia viridus'' Schenk, 1896 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Xenia (genus)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
