Physalia physalis
Ko fii innde ndee: The name comes from the man-of-war, a sailing warship, because the float looks like the Portuguese caravel (a sailing ship) under full sail.1

The Portuguese man o' war looks like a jellyfish, but it is actually a colony of many tiny linked animals that work together as one. It drifts on the surface of the Atlantic, Indian and Pacific oceans, and its long tentacles sting prey. Its sting is painful to people, and in some cases it can kill them.1

Hello arano
It lives on the surface of the water, as part of a group of animals called the neuston. Winds can blow it into bays or onto beaches, where beachgoers are most likely to meet it. A man o' war found on a beach may lead to the beach being closed.1

It traps and paralyses prey with its venomous tentacles, then reels the prey in to its digestive zooids. It mainly eats small fish, molluscs, small crustaceans and zooplankton.1

Hono anndirtee ngal

  • A gas-filled bladder called the pneumatophore floats on the surface and acts as a sail.1
  • Long tentacles, which can reach over 30 m, hang below the surface.1
  • The float can be up to 30 cm long, 13 cm wide and 15 cm tall.1
  • Groups can be large, sometimes over 1,000 animals.1
  • The sail may be left- or right-handed, depending on the way the wind catches it.1

No jiibondiree e: It superficially resembles a jellyfish, but it is a siphonophore, a colonial animal made of many smaller units called zooids.1

Ko honɗun tooke mum waɗata (ŋatgol walla jukkugol)?

Its tentacles carry nematocysts, tiny coiled, thread-like stingers that inject venom on contact. The venom can paralyse small fish and other prey. The sting is powerful enough to kill fish, crustaceans and, in some cases, humans.1

Its stings are painful and it is well known to beachgoers. In some cases the sting can kill humans. Large groups can also reduce fish populations and damage fishing supplies.1

Ko honɗun ngal waɗata si ngal hulii?

When attacked at the surface, it can deflate its pneumatophore and temporarily submerge.1

Humpito

1

It is not a single animal. It is a colony of zooids, all genetically identical, that work together like organs in one body.1

2

The blanket octopus is immune to its venom and uses broken tentacles as weapons.1

3

Its float can produce carbon monoxide, which makes up as much as 13% of the gas inside it.1

4

The loggerhead sea turtle eats it regularly, because its thick skin protects it from the stings.1

5

The man-of-war fish can live among its tentacles and feeds on them, while avoiding being stung.1

Bonnoowo fenaandeeji

Fenaande: It is a jellyfish.

Goonga: It only looks like a jellyfish. It is a siphonophore, a colony of many linked zooids.1
