Chrysaora agulhensis [Chrysaora agulhensis]
Description
Chrysaora agulhensis can be seen drifting along productive coastal waters, where plankton-rich currents bring it close to divers. Look for its graceful, pulsing bell and trailing tentacles—an elegant but potentially stinging presence if you get too close.
