The blue blubber jellyfish is a large, rounded jellyfish that lives along the coast of Eastern Australia. It is blue to purple and pulses slowly as it swims. Its arms carry stings, and it can form huge blooms in estuaries and shallow bays.1

Anaishi

Eastern Australian coastline; also found along the Malay Peninsula1

Bahari ya Hindi, Bahari ya Pasifiki, Bahari ya Matumbawe

Nyumbani

It lives in estuaries, semi-enclosed lagoons and shallow bays, and mostly in the saltier parts of estuaries. It can form large, dense blooms, which can interrupt people's use of beaches and coastal waters.1

Urefu

25 cm hadi 30 cm (9.8 in hadi 1 ft)1

Kasi ya juu

takriban km 0.9 kwa saa (maili 0.56 kwa saa)

Kuogelea, makadirio

Hula nini?

It feeds mainly on zooplankton (tiny animals drifting in the water), especially mollusc veligers, copepods and their nauplii. It uses stinging cells on its arms to immobilise prey.1

Jinsi ya kumtambua

Colour ranges from light blue to dark blue or purple.1
Large, rounded bell, about 25 to 30 cm across.1
The bell pulses in a rapid, staccato rhythm.1
Found along the Eastern Australian coast, often in large numbers.1

Mara nyingi huchanganywa na: Two forms are recognised on the Eastern Australian coast. Catostylus mosaicus mosaicus, found in New South Wales and southern Queensland, has small or no papillae (small projections) and a larger bell. Catostylus mosaicus conservitus, found in the Bass Strait, has clear papillae, is blue or white, and has a smaller bell.1

Mikono inayodunga

Maelfu ya seli ndogo za kudunga hufyatuka kitu kikizigusa.

Sumu yake hufanya nini?

Its arms carry stinging cells and can produce a mild but irritating sting. The sting is described as mild, and no further effects on the body are described.1

Ana hatari gani kwa watu?

Hatari kwa watu: InaumaInaweza kuuma sana, lakini karibu kamwe si jambo zito.

Its sting is described as mild but irritating. The main problem is the large blooms, which can interrupt recreation in coastal areas.1

Hufanya nini akiogopa?

Its stinging cells on the arms are used to defend it from threats.1

Akidunga

Toka majini na uondoe vipande vya mikono iliyonata (kwa glavu au kitambaa).
Kwa yavuyavu sanduku wa kitropiki: mimina siki kwenye sehemu zilizodungwa kwa angalau sekunde 30, omba msaada na uwe tayari kufanya CPR. Kwa mabotoli ya bluu na wengine wengi: suuza kwa maji ya bahari, kisha maji ya moto kupunguza maumivu.

Daima piga namba ya dharura kwanza (112, 000, 911). Huu ni mwongozo wa jumla wa huduma ya kwanza, si ushauri wa kitabibu. Misingi ya huduma ya kwanza

Kaa salama

Kamwe usimguse, kumkamata wala kumchokoza mnyama wa porini, hata akiwa mdogo, na hata akionekana amelala au amekufa.
Mpe nafasi. Ukikutana naye, tulia, rudi nyuma polepole na umwache aende zake.
Akikudunga: tulia, usitikisike, piga namba yako ya dharura (112, 000, 911) au nenda hospitali haraka. Kumbuka alivyoonekana, picha husaidia.

Hakuwindi wewe. Hutumia sumu yake kukamata chakula au kujilinda, na hupendelea zaidi kujificha. Zaidi kuhusu kukaa salama

Ukweli

Its stinging venom is being studied for possible anticancer effects against lung cancer cells in laboratory research.1

It is harvested for food and is considered a delicacy in some countries, including China and Japan.1

A small copepod lives on its oral arms and is thought to feed on mucus the jellyfish produces.1

Blooms can be very dense, and they can take food away from other animals such as fish.1

Sea turtles and jellyfish-eating fish, including tuna, butterfish, sunfish and spiny dogfish, prey on it.1

It has a partnership with photosynthetic algae, though it has less of these algae than many other jellyfish.1

Kwa wataalamu wa sumu

Jina la kisayansi: Catostylus mosaicus
Kundi: Yavuyavu na wadungaji wa baharini
Familia: Catostylidae2
Mpangilio: Rhizostomeae
Mabara: Bahari ya Hindi, Bahari ya Pasifiki, Bahari ya Matumbawe, Bahari kuu
Watoto: Fertilised eggs develop into free-swimming planula larvae, which settle on the seabed and grow into a polyp stage. The polyp then produces young jellyfish (ephyrae), which mature into the free-swimming medusa.1
