Bonaire banded box jellyfish
The Bonaire banded box jellyfish is a stinging sea creature described as a new species in 2011. It has been found in the waters of the Dutch Caribbean islands, and it is special because it is the first Tamoya species discovered in over 100 years. Like other box jellyfish, it is venomous, so it is best to keep well away from it.1
