Rhombozoa

Rhombozoa is a phylum of tiny animals that live in the urine of cephalopods. Adults have about 30 cells each, including an axial cell with the ciliated cells arranged around it. Reproductive cells inside the axial cell produce vermiform offspring, which are just like adults but smaller, or infusorigens, which are gonads and produce infusoriform larvae.
