Nevadneidae is a family of sea anemones.
The following genera are recognized: [2]
Tube-dwelling anemones or ceriantharians look very similar to sea anemones but belong to an entirely different subclass of anthozoans. They are solitary, living buried in soft sediments. Tube anemones live inside and can withdraw into tubes, which are composed of a fibrous material made from secreted mucus and threads of nematocyst-like organelles known as ptychocysts. Within the tubes of these ceriantharians, more than one polyp is present, which is an exceptional trait because species that create tube systems usually contain only one polyp per tube. Ceriantharians were formerly classified in the taxon Ceriantipatharia along with the black corals but have since been moved to their own subclass, Ceriantharia.

Edwardsia is a genus of sea anemones, the type of the family Edwardsiidae. They have eight mesenteries and live in tubes in the sand. The name, in New Latin, commemorates the French zoologist Henri Milne-Edwards.
Amphianthus is a genus of sea anemones. It is the only genus in the monotypic family Amphianthidae.
Hormathiidae is a family of sea anemones in the class Anthozoa.
Sagartiidae is a family of sea anemones.
Isozoanthus is a genus of anemone-like anthozoans in the order Zoantharia.
Edwardsiidae is a family of sea anemones. Edwardsiids have long thin bodies and live buried in sediments or in holes or crevices in rock.

Palythoa is a genus of anthozoans in the order Zoantharia.
Metridioidea is a superfamily of sea anemones in the order Actiniaria.
Cerianthidae is a family of tube-dwelling anemones in the order Spirularia of the subclass Ceriantharia.
Arachnactidae is a family of tube-dwelling anemones in the order Ceriantharia. It is the only family in the monotypic order Penicillaria and comprises around 38 species. They differ from other ceriantharians in the makeup of their cnidome, the relative sizes of the oral discs and the shape and structure of the mesenteries. These tube anemones dwell in parchment-like tubes immersed in soft sediment, and have two whorls of tentacles, the outer ones being much longer than the inner ones.
Actinostolidae is a family of sea anemones in the order Actiniaria. Members of this family are deep sea species, with some occurring at hydrothermal vents.
Diadumene is a genus of sea anemones. It is the only genus in the monotypic family Diadumenidae.
Actinernidae is a family of sea anemones. It contains the following genera and species:
Emy Oscaria Charlotte Fick née Kylander (1876–1959) was a Swedish textile artist, educator and fashion designer. After completing her education with study trips to Italy, France and Germany, she returned to Stockholm where she worked with textiles in the Nordiska Kompaniet department store. While there, she met Elisabeth Glantzberg with whom in 1910 she established Birgittaskolan which not only offered courses but served as a fashion studio where textiles could be ordered. After breaking up with Glantzberg in 1914, Fick set up her own business which she called Santa Birgittaskolan. From the late 1920s, the company became recognized for its tapestries. After closing the establishment in the mid-1930s, Fick moved to Östergötland with her large collection of lace, clothes and furniture which she left to Östergötland Museum.
Exocoelactiidae is a family of sea anemones belonging to the order Actiniaria.
