Urticina grebelnyi
From Natural History of Southeast Alaska
Painted anemone (Urticina grebelnyi): The painted anemone is a beautiful, variable, often very large anemone that is usually found in the lower intertidal zones in areas with medium to large rocks and plenty of current. Its banded tentacles are a good clue as to the species, and they are present in almost all color variations Urticina coriacea can be very similar, but it is a burrowing anemone, and when the "trunk" is present, it is visibly covered with stubs.
