Lensia

[6] Additionally, the suborder Calycophorae lack a pneumatophore, which is a gas filled zooid used to float and instead utilize oils within their somatocyst for floatation and nutritional storage.

[7][8] Furthermore, Since the genus Lensia belongs to the family Diphyidae, it is additionally characterized by the presence of two nectophores, which are linearly attached to the stalk.

[8] Long chains of cormidia are attached to the siphosome in a species-specific pattern and typically consists of a gastrozooid with a single tentacle, one or more gonozooids, and a bract.

[9] Nectophore - Asexual medusoid specialized for propulsion; lacking feeding and reproductive structures; typically two in lensia species.

[10] A velum is an addition of tissue surrounding the opening on the bottom of the nectophore that can be contracted, causing a jet of water that Hydrozoans use for propulsion.

[12] Many species of Lensia display diel vertical migration patterns, following their prey to the surface at night and returning to the edge of the daylight zone during the day.
