Actinia fragacea (Strawberry Anemone)
Home Organisms Description Gallery
Phylum: Cnidaria
Class: Zoantharia
Order: Actinaria
Family: Actiniidae
Very similar to Actinia equina but grows larger to about 100mm in diameter and is found lower on the beach and deeper sublittorally. The obvious distinction between A.fragacea and A.equina is the appearance of spots over the body from where it gets it's common name.
