Rhodaliidae [Rhodaliidae]
Description
Rhodaliid jellyfish are typically encountered as small, delicate drifters in the water column rather than as large, showy animals. Divers may spot them during calm dives as faint, translucent forms that slowly pulse and drift, sometimes appearing near plankton-rich areas.
