 Unusually for a sea anemone, "L. brevicorne" usually remains unattached to any solid substrate.Sometimes it rolls itself up and allows itself to drift with the current and roll across the seabed like tumbleweed before coming to rest against any solid object it encounters.In a study of a whale carcase that had fallen to the seafloor in Monterey Canyon, it was found that many specimens of "L. brevicorne" accumulated alongside.
