Aurelia clausa [Aurelia clausa]
Description
Divers may spot this moon jelly as a delicate, translucent bell drifting through the water column. Its subtle, flowing movements can look almost weightless, and it often appears in calm, plankton-rich areas where currents carry it past reefs and seagrass.
