Return to Cnidarians: Jellies of the Salish Sea

Four Tentacle Jelly is another common name for a jelly that includes several species.  Their common feature is their long tentacle roots that run upwards to the top of the bell.   The animals documented here all fall under the newly described Solmundaegina nematophora, but were at one time lumped under the larger umbrella of Aegina citrea.  There are at least tw0 four-tentacled species found via ROV that are new to science and remain unidentified.
