The cerata are flattened, widest above the base, and taper to a point. The hepatic diverticula cannot be readily seen within them if there is pigment present. The tips often take on the coloration of their anemone food. The mid-dorsal band, which is cerata-free but has light cororation on it, can be seen to the right.

This head-on view shows the white triangle anterior to the rhinophores. It also shows the smooth, tapering rhinophore with a light-colored tip, and the fact that the rhinophore seems to have a pore in the end. Notice also the cerata-free band that runs mid-dorsally and has light coloration.
