The stinging cells on the tentacles release venom that causes an extremely painful sting. The sting is linear, meaning it leaves a line of marks on the skin. Apart from pain, it can cause heart dysfunction and slowed breathing, which are systemic symptoms that affect the whole body. The rash can last for several months.1

A four-year-old boy in the Gulf of Mexico died within forty minutes of being stung. Off the coast of Brazil, 16 stings over five years were identified as coming from this species. Children are especially at risk.1

- Antivenom given within a few hours of the sting relieves the pain somewhat, reduces the severity of the rash and improves other symptoms. In extreme cases, cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) can be effective if started promptly.1

Makambo ya solo
Its bell is almost completely transparent, which makes it hard to spot in the water.1
Its tentacles are the longest part of its body, reaching several metres in length.1
Along the Texas Gulf coast in 1955 and 1956, large numbers appeared inshore during drought, when the water was saltier than normal.1
Scientists have done little research on this species, and studies have found that jellyfish from different regions can have different stinging cells.1
Small specimens were often caught in shrimp trawls, while the adults were seldom seen near the surface.1
