Catostylidae
Catostylidae is a family of jellyfish. Members of this family are characterized by their thick, sausage-like oral arms. Description Members of the family Catostylidae are small marine jellyfish with domed bells. The eight short oral arms are broad and three-sided. There is a network of branching canals linked with the primary ring canal, but these are not joined to the gastrovascular cavity except through the sixteen or thirty two radial canals. Some of these radial canals do not extend to the edge of the bell. There are eight sense organs, known as rhopalia, which have canals extending to the margin of the bell. These jellyfish swim in jerks by contracting their circular and radial muscles, which decreases the volume of water enclosed under the bell, before relaxing them again and repeating the sequence. They have no control over the direction of locomotion and drift with the currents and tides. Genera * '' Acromitoides'' :* '' Acromitoides purpurus'' (Mayer, 1910) :* '' Acromi ...

Catostylus Tagi
''Catostylus tagi'' is a species of jellyfish from warmer parts of the East Atlantic Ocean and since the 2000s also found in the Mediterranean Sea. It is the only member of the family Catostylidae that is found in Europe.Parracho, T.; and Z. Morais (2015). Catostylus tagi: partial rDNA sequencing and characterisation of nematocyte structures using two improvements in jellyfish sample preparation. J Venom Anim Toxins Incl Trop Dis. 21: 40. It has collagen in its bell which is currently being researched to see if it has biomedical uses as an intercellular matrix. The species is named after the Tagus river. Description Typical ''Catostylus'' with chunky appendages and tentacle to go with each. This jellyfish has a sting that causes light pain and a skin rash, but generally poses no serious threat. It is up to in bell diameter, but a more typical size is in diameter and in weight. Its colour is variable and can be blue-white, cream, brown, or off-white. The exumbrellar grooves ar ...

Catostylus Mosaicus
The jelly blubber (''Catostylus mosaicus''), also known as the blue blubber jellyfish, is a species of jellyfish from coastal regions in the Indo-Pacific. It is the most commonly encountered jellyfish along the Australian eastern coast and large swarms sometimes appear in estuarine waters. Description In Sydney waters, the jelly blubber's large bell is a creamy white or brown colour, but farther north in Australia it is usually blue. The colours are derived from symbiotic algal plant cells within the body of the jellyfish. There is no obvious mouth on the underside, but there are small openings on each arm, through which food is passed to the stomach. The tentacles also have stinging cells that can capture tiny crustaceans and other plankton. It can grow up to 35cm across. The sting can be painful but generally poses no serious risk to humans. Distribution and habitat This jellyfish is found in coastal parts of the Indo-Pacific. In Australia, it occurs off the coasts of Quee ...
