Field Notes

Description:

I came upon this while going in for a dip. I exhibited this in one of the complexes, there were many curious onlookers, but the majority could not make out what it is or was. I have three shots of this. I have called this the "SUNFLOWER JELLY" as it looks just like a sunflower.

It was sunset, 6.15 pm, and produced beautiful light disbursements, I know Jelly Fishes look beautiful in water with their diverse colours and tentacles, but I have never seen such a beautiful piece on land. I have searched the net widely too.

Habitat:

Ocean

Notes:

Kindly help me identify this specie, if any of you could, or provide a link.

Welcome to Project Noah, NPOOLOHGASINGAMHuangPohL... Can you please re-post this jellyfish without the writing on the picture? I invite you to go to http://www.projectnoah.org/faq where you will find the purpose and “rules” of Project Noah. There is a blog http://blog.projectnoah.org/ where we post articles from spotters with special insight into different organisms. There are also the chats for help with identification, and to comment on your own and others’ spottings. Look at the global and local missions to put your spottings into: http://www.projectnoah.org/missions Enjoy yourself here, see you around!
