Stalked Jellyfishes [Stauromedusae]

Description

Stalked jellyfishes are unusual, anchored-looking jellyfish that often cling to hard substrates like rocks, kelp, or other surfaces. Underwater, they can resemble small, cup-like organisms with a stalk, making them easy to miss unless you slow down and look closely.
