{{Template}}
'''Anthozoa''' is a class within the phylum [[Cnidaria]]. Unlike other cnidarians, anthozoans do not have a [[medusa (biology)|medusa]] stage in their development. Instead, they release [[sperm]] and eggs that form a [[planula]], which attaches to some [[Substrate (biology)|substrate]] on which the cnidarian grows. Some anthozoans can also reproduce asexually through [[budding]]. More than 6,100 species have been described.
