These spawning bryozoan colonies are on a blade of giant kelp. There are five brood chambers in the larger colony.

Living colony of Cinctipora elegans seen from above. Stewart Island.

In this closeup view the individual zooids can be seen. The surface of the colony is covered with circular clusters of groups of elevated zooids with non-elevated zooids between and within the circles.
-
Another view also shows the circular groups of clusters of elevated zooecia.

A dead patch on the colony clearly shows the encrusted tubes the colony is made of
