I believe these photos are of species Urticina coriacea, the stubby rose anemone, but I've never seen any this green before. I'm adding a couple bonus photos of a brooding anemone, Epiactis prolifera, (I believe) that I found tide pooling yesterday. It had babies of all sizes on it
Are my IDs correct? If anyone wants to post photos of anemones here, go for it. I'd love to see them.

Re: Strangely colored Stubby Rose Anemone
Hi Taryn,
I think that your I.D.'s are correct except that the Stubby Rose has been renamed to Urticina clandestina. Check out this site: http://actiniaria.com/urticina_clandestina.php
Semanticly yours,
