Rhizostoma Pulmo
''Rhizostoma pulmo'', commonly known as the barrel jellyfish, the dustbin-lid jellyfish or the frilly-mouthed jellyfish, is a scyphomedusa in the family Rhizostomatidae. It is found in the northeast Atlantic, and in the Adriatic, Mediterranean Sea, Black Sea and Sea of Azov. It is also known from the southern Atlantic off the western South African coast and into False Bay.Branch, G.M., Branch, M.L, Griffiths, C.L. and Beckley, L.E. 2010. ''Two Oceans: a guide to the marine life of southern Africa'' It is common in the Irish Sea. It typically is up to in diameter, but can exceptionally reach or larger, making it the largest jellyfish in British and Irish waters (''Cyanea capillata'' reaches an even larger size, but is generally smaller in Britain). On 13 July 2019, wildlife biologist Lizzie Daly dived off the coast of Cornwall in the United Kingdom, along with the underwater cinematographer Dan Abbott. The two divers shared their encounter with a human-sized barrel jellyfish, ' ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Rhopilema Verrilli
''Rhopilema verrilli'', or mushroom cap jellyfish, is a species of jellyfish in the family Rhizostomatidae. They are cnidarian invertebrates distinguished by their mushroom-shaped medusae. The species does not have any tentacles; however, they still have stinging cells, called nematocysts, within their bells, which can produce mild stings to humans. Taxonomy "Mushroom cap jellyfish" and "sea mushroom jellyfish" are common names for the rare ''Rhopilema verrili''. Their common name refers to the shape of the medusa, which resembles a mushroom cap. ''Rhopilema verrilli,'' originally ''Nectopilema verrilli'', was named by Fewkes (1887) after a specimen found in the New Haven Harbor of Connecticut. The mushroom jellyfish is often confused with the cannonball jellyfish. Both species lack tentacles, but the ''R. verrilli'' has finger-shaped arms, while the ''S. meleagris'' does not. The mushroom jellyfish is also much flatter, softer, and larger as it can be up to 51 cm or 20 ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Rhopilema Nomadica
''Rhopilema nomadica'', the nomad jellyfish, is a jellyfish indigenous to tropical warm waters of the Indian and Pacific Oceans. Since 1970's it has been also found in Mediterranean Sea, where it entered via the Suez Canal (Lessepsian migration). It has been found in the Eastern Mediterranean, off the coast of Lebanon, Israel, Turkey, and in the Aegean Sea off the coast of Greece. ''R. nomadica'''s body is light blue and the bell is rounded. It can grow up to 10 kg of weight, and its bell is commonly 40–60 cm in diameter, but can be up to 90 cm. The European Union lists it as one of the worst invasive marine species in European waters. Effects on humans ''R. nomadica'' can cause very painful injuries to humans, since it has vermicular filaments, which are covered in venomous stinging cells, in the mouth arms. The ''R. nomadica'' had caused the largest numbers of envenomisations along the southern Levant coast. These jellyfishes are notorious for the large swarms ...

Rhopilema Esculentum
''Rhopilema esculentum'', the flame jellyfish, is a species of jellyfish native to the warm temperate waters of the Pacific Ocean. It is a popular seafood in southeastern Asia. In the 1980s, research was undertaken in China into its aquaculture, and it is now bred in ponds in that country before being released into the sea to grow to a mature size suitable for the fishery. Description Like other members of the order Rhizostomae, the medusa stage of ''Rhopilema esculentum'' has no tentacles at the margin of the bell. Instead, underneath the bell it has eight highly branched oral arms, fused at the base and with numerous secondary mouth openings. The bell is rigid, tough and thick with a smooth surface. It is usually suffused with red. Distribution and habitat ''Rhopilema esculentum'' is found in western Japan, the Bohai Sea, the Yellow Sea, the East China Sea and the North Malayan Sea. It drifts with the currents and is found near the surface in calm weather. It is swept insh ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
