(n.) Any small fresh-water hydroid of the genus Hydra, usually found attached to sticks, stones, etc., by a basal sucker.
(n.) A southern constellation of great length lying southerly from Cancer, Leo, and Virgo.

(8) Nematocyte differentiation from interstitial stem cells in hydra occurs in a highly position-dependent manner along the body axis.
