Xyloplax medusiformis

''Xyloplax medusiformis'' is a sea daisy, a member of an unusual group of marine taxa belonging to the phylum Echinodermata. It is found at bathyal depths in waters around New Zealand. It was first described in 1986 by Baker, Rowe and Clark and is the type taxon of the genus ''Xyloplax''.〔 Its generic name derives from the Greek "xylo" meaning wood and its specific name was chosen because its morphology superficially resembles that of a cnidarian medusa.
==Discovery==
Specimens of ''Xyloplax medusiformis'' were first discovered by accident when a submersible craft was being used to collect samples of wood on the deep sea bed in the South Pacific near New Zealand. Nine individuals were discovered from five locations. At the time these specimens puzzled researchers because of their lack of close affiliations to other echinoderms. Since then further members of the genus ''Xyloplax'' have been discovered on wood at bathyal depths, ''Xyloplax turnerae'' in the Atlantic Ocean off the Bahamas and ''Xyloplax janetae'' in the central Pacific Ocean.
