  1. genus hydra

    Genus Hydra is a taxonomic group of simple, aquatic animals belonging to the phylum Cnidaria, which also includes sea anemones, jellyfish, and corals. They are predominantly freshwater species, resembling tiny tubes with a ring of tentacles at one end. They are known for their regenerative capabilities, being able to reform their entire body from just a fragment. Their name comes from the mythical Greek monster, Hydra, who could also regrow its heads. The genus Hydra typically feeds on small aquatic invertebrates. It reproduces both sexually and asexually. The Hydra genus was first described by Carl Linnaeus in 1752.
