ctene
A ctene (also known as a comb plate) is a locomotive or sensory organelle usually found in groups on the surface of a ctenophore, which is a type of marine invertebrate. Composed of hair-like cilia, ctenes allow for movement by beating in coordinated waves. When the cilia catch the light, they can produce a rainbow effect.
