Illustration of the Portuguese man-of-war, Physalia physalis, floating at the ocean surface with a gas-filled pneumatophore above water and long purple tentacles trailing below. In biological hierarchy, specialized zooids (dactylozooids and gastrozooids) form a colonial hydrozoan organism within phylum Cnidaria. In marine biology and physiology, the pneumatophore provides buoyancy while nematocyst-laden tentacles capture prey and deliver venom. This anatomical structure occupies the neustonic zone of pelagic marine environments and functions as a drifting predator.
