Actinobolina vorax (?) - Tentacles folding, fission, morphology

[Ariel Qassis]

Hello,
Here are some scenes of Actinobolina vorax (?)-
Folding and spreading its tentacles, Fission, and detailed morphology:

Notice the tentacles extending inward and curving inside the body when folded.


I have already seen those "flowers" on Hypotrich pelicle, i don't remember their function. Bacteria perhaps?


I'm also referring to an earlier video of Actinobolina, documenting hunting Halteria:

 

Thanks for watching!
