The jellyfish surround themselves with a layer of mucus containing cassiosomes, independent bodies consisting of a layer of stinging cells surrounding a piece of jelly as described in a 2020 study featuring notable scientists such as Jennie Janssen. Between sixty and a hundred cilia enable the cassiophore to swim independently of the jellyfish ...
Catostylus mosaicus is also known as the jelly blubber or blue blubber jellyfish. [1] The jelly blubber is distinguishable by its color, which ranges from light blue to a dark blue or purple, and its large (250-300mm [ 2 ] ), rounded bell which pulses in a staccato rhythm. [ 1 ]
Craspedacusta sowerbii or peach blossom jellyfish [1] is a species of freshwater hydrozoan jellyfish, or hydromedusa cnidarian. Hydromedusan jellyfish differ from scyphozoan jellyfish because they have a muscular, shelf-like structure called a velum on the ventral surface, attached to the bell margin.

The Scyphozoa are an exclusively marine class of the phylum Cnidaria, [2] referred to as the true jellyfish (or "true jellies"). The class name Scyphozoa comes from the Greek word skyphos ( σκύφος ), denoting a kind of drinking cup and alluding to the cup shape of the organism.
Jellyfish, also known as sea jellies, are the medusa-phase of certain gelatinous members of the subphylum Medusozoa, which is a major part of the phylum Cnidaria. Jellyfish are mainly free-swimming marine animals, although a few are anchored to the seabed by stalks rather
Siphonophores of the deep-sea genus Erenna (found at depths between 1,600–2,300 metres or 5,200–7,500 feet) are thought to use their bioluminescent capability for offense too, as a lure to attract fish. [8] This genus is one of the few to prey on fish rather than crustaceans. [8]
A number of other states already have consumption advisories in place over PFAS chemicals. They have been called “forever chemicals” because they don’t break down well in the environment.
