Summary

edit
Description This species is also known as a "lagoon jelly" because it lives in bays, harbors and lagoons in the South Pacific. The spotted jelly has a rounded bell and four clumps of oral arms with clublike appendages that hang down below. Instead of a single mouth, it has many small mouth openings on its oral arms that capture small animal plankton. In addition, the jelly grows a crop of symbiotic algae in its tissues, which gives it a greenish-brown color and produces food for the jelly to harvest.
