The vent sea anemoneAlvinactis idsseensis sp. Nov. is a species in the family Actinoscyphiidae. They can flourish in a variety of deep-sea environments. Most sea anemones thriving in sulfide-rich hydrothermal vent peripheral zone obtain nutrients by eating blind shrimp, rather than relying on chemoautotrophic carbon production.
