This document summarizes the phyla Cnidaria and Ctenophora. Cnidaria includes jellyfish, corals, sea anemones and hydras. They have stinging cells called cnidocytes and can have a polyp or medusa body form. Ctenophora includes comb jellies and have rows of cilia used for locomotion. They lack specialized organ systems and reproduce via a free-swimming larval stage. Both phyla are marine and diploblastic, with tissues but no true organs. Cnidaria have nematocyst stinging cells and Ctenophora have comb rows of cilia.
