Halecium muricatum
[edit]- ... that the sea hedgehog hydroid is predated by the nudibranch Zelentia pustulata which feeds almost exclusively on it and winds its egg coils around its branches? Source: "Feeds on the hydroid Halecium muricatum" "The spawn is a convoluted coil wound round the hydroid food."
- ALT1:... that the nudibranch Zelentia pustulata feeds almost exclusively on the sea hedgehog hydroid, winding its egg coils around the branches?

Hi, I came by to promote this, but I don't see anything about "almost exclusively" in the source. Yoninah (talk) 20:02, 15 November 2018 (UTC)
- @Yoninah: I have added another source. It mentions Cuthona pustulata, which is a synonym of Zelentia pustulata, and states it feeds "exclusively" on it, but somewhere else I read about some other hydroid that it ate, so I played safe with "almost exclusively".

- @Cwmhiraeth: thanks, but now the hook and source are in conflict. How about:
- ALT0a: ... that the sea hedgehog hydroid is predated by the nudibranch Zelentia pustulata, which feeds on it and winds its egg coils around its branches? Yoninah (talk) 20:25, 15 November 2018 (UTC)
- ALT0a is fine, and solves the problem. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 20:36, 15 November 2018 (UTC)
