Entacmaea is a genus of sea anemone in the family Actiniidae.
The following species are recognized in the genus Entacmaea:
Anthopleura is a genus of sea anemones, of the family Actiniidae.
Bubble-tip anemone is a species of sea anemone in the family Actiniidae. Like several anemone species, E. quadricolor can support several anemonefish species, and displays two growth types based on where they live in the water column, one of which gives it the common name, due to the bulbous tips on its tentacles.
The Terebellidae is a marine family of polychaete worms, of which the type taxon is Terebella, described by Carl Linnaeus in his 1767 12th edition of Systema Naturae.
Carcharias is a genus of sand tiger sharks belonging to the family Odontaspididae.
Corallimorpharia is an order of marine cnidarians closely related to stony or reef building corals (Scleractinia). They occur in both temperate and tropical climates, although they are mostly tropical. Temperate forms tend to be very robust, with wide and long columns, whereas tropical forms tend to have very short columns with a wide oral disc and very short tentacles. The tentacles are usually arranged in rows radiating from the mouth. Many species occur together in large groups, although there are recorded instances of individuals. In many respects, they resemble the stony corals, except for the absence of a stony skeleton. Morphological and molecular evidence suggests that they are very closely related to stony corals.

Dofleinia armata, commonly known as the striped anemone or armed anemone, is a species of sea anemone in the family Actiniidae. It is the only species in the genus Dofleinia.
Pseudostomum is a genus of flatworms in the family Pseudostomidae.

Thalassianthus is a genus of sea anemones of the family Thalassianthidae.
Sabellaria alcocki is a species of bristle worm described by Charles Joseph Gravier in 1906 and named in honour of Alfred William Alcock.
