JimSwims 31 Posted June 24, 2011 Wow Jeremy that is pretty wild! Wondering if it may be the juvenile stage of some Sea Star??? Cheers, Jim. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Leslie 0 Posted June 24, 2011 It's a type of upside-down jelly. You can see the mouth in the center of the animal. Not Cassiopeae. I've seen similar ones in the Caribbean. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scubamarli 5 Posted June 24, 2011 Looks like a member of Stauromedusae, or stalked jellyfish. Cheers, Marli Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Leslie 0 Posted June 25, 2011 Thanks Marli! That was enough memory jog -- stalked jelly Halicystus. Haliclystus auricula is the best known as it occurs throughout the northern hemisphere. There are about 10 species. http://www.marlin.ac.uk/speciesinformation...?speciesID=3445 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
