The Australian spotted jellyfish is a jellyfish with a bell up to 50 cm wide. It is native to the western Pacific, from Australia to Japan, but has spread to many other seas. Its sting is mild and it is not considered a threat to people, but large groups can cause problems for fishing and local sea life.1

Tuis

It prefers warm temperate seas and gathers in waters near coastlines. It has been found in bays and sounds, such as Bogue Sound in North Carolina.1

Wat eet dit?

It feeds mainly on zooplankton, which it catches by filtering seawater. Fluid flows over clusters of tiny mouthlets near the base of its oral arm disk, and it must keep swimming to move food to the mouthlets for digestion.1

Hoe om dit te herken

Its name comes from its spotted pattern, and it is also called the white-spotted or brown jellyfish.1
The bell can grow up to 50 cm across.1
It usually travels in large groups.1

Gifkrag

Steektentakels

Duisende piepklein steekselle skiet af wanneer iets aan hulle raak.

Wat doen sy gif as dit byt of steek?

It has only a mild venom. The venom is not strong enough to kill its prey, which is why it catches food by filtering rather than by stunning it.1

Hoe gevaarlik is dit vir mense?

Gevaar vir mense: LigSoos 'n bysteek of minder. Basies onskadelik vir mense.

It is not considered a threat to humans, and its sting is mild or hard to notice. It does cause harm to fishing industries, where it eats fish, crab and shrimp eggs and larvae and clogs nets.1

As dit steek

The sting can be treated with a dilute acid, usually white or cider vinegar.1
Klim uit die water en pluk enige tentakels af (met handskoene of 'n lap).
Vir tropiese kubuskwalle: gooi vir minstens 30 sekondes asyn oor die steke, roep hulp en wees gereed om KPR te doen. Vir bloublasies en die meeste ander: spoel af met seewater, dan warm water vir die pyn.

Bly veilig

Moet nooit aan 'n wilde dier raak, dit vang of terg nie, selfs nie 'n kleintjie nie, en selfs nie as dit lyk of dit slaap of dood is nie.
Gee dit spasie. As jy een raakloop, bly kalm, stap stadig terug en laat dit sy eie pad gaan.
As een jou steek: bly kalm, bly stil, bel jou noodnommer (112, 000, 911) of kom vinnig by 'n hospitaal uit. Onthou hoe dit gelyk het, 'n foto help.

Dit is nie uit om jou te kry nie. Dit gebruik sy gif om kos te vang of om homself te beskerm, en kruip baie eerder weg. Meer oor veilig bly

die moeite werd om te weet

Feite

Each jellyfish can filter as much as 50,000 litres of seawater per day.1

One individual found on Sunset Beach, North Carolina, in October 2007 measured 74 cm wide, perhaps the largest ever recorded.1

Large swarms can clog fishing nets, damage boat intakes and sometimes force fishing areas to close.1

Its polyps can multiply by dividing into other polyps, which makes a larger group than the one the mother started with.1

Its polyp stage can last up to five years, and its adult stage up to two years.1

In the Gulf of Mexico, medusae grow unusually large, reaching more than 60 cm across.1

Mite-breker

Mite: It is a dangerous jellyfish that is a serious threat to people.

Waarheid: It has only a mild venom and is not considered a threat to humans. Its main harm is to fishing and the local ecosystem, where it eats large amounts of zooplankton.1
