South American sea nettle
The South American sea nettle is a large jellyfish with a red-brown bell and long, spiralling arms. It drifts in the open ocean along both the Pacific and Atlantic coasts of South America. Its stinging tentacles catch the tiny animals it eats.1

Indlela yokusibona
- Red-brown bell1
- Long, spiralling arms1
- Thin outer tentacles that surround inner tentacles which are often white and fluffy in appearance1
- Most mature individuals have a bell 25 to 40 cm across1
Ivamise ukudidaniswa ne: It was historically confused with C. hysoscella. That species is now known to be restricted to the northeast Atlantic, so it is not found in South American waters.1
Amandla obuthi
Izinkulungwane zamaseli amancane ahlabayo ziyadubula uma kukhona okuzithintayo.
Siyingozi kangakanani ebantwini?
Ingozi ebantwini: KubuhlunguKungaba buhlungu ngempela, kodwa cishe akukaze kube kubi kakhulu.
Uma sihlaba
- Phuma emanzini bese ukhipha noma yimiphi imicu ehlabayo (ama-tentacle) (ngamagilavu noma ngendwangu).
- Kuma-box jellyfish asezindaweni ezishisayo: thela uviniga ezindaweni ezihlatshiwe okungenani imizuzwana engama-30, biza usizo futhi ulungele ukwenza i-CPR. Kuma-bluebottle nakwamanye amaningi: hlanza ngamanzi olwandle, bese usebenzisa amanzi ashisayo ngenxa yobuhlungu.
Njalo shayela kuqala inombolo yezimo eziphuthumayo (112, 000, 911). Lokhu kuyiseluleko sosizo lokuqala esijwayelekile, akusona iseluleko sezokwelapha. Izisekelo zosizo lokuqala
Hlala uphephile
- Ungalokothi uthinte, ubambe noma ugcone isilwane sasendle, ngisho noma sincane, futhi ngisho noma sibukeka silele noma sifile.
- Sinike isikhala. Uma uhlangana naso, hlala uzolile, uhlehle kancane bese usiyeka sihambe ngendlela yaso.
- Uma sikuhlaba: hlala uzolile, ungashukumi, shayela inombolo yezimo eziphuthumayo (112, 000, 911) noma uye esibhedlela ngokushesha. Khumbula ukuthi besibukeka kanjani, isithombe siyasiza.
Asikuzingeli wena. Sisebenzisa ubuthi baso ukuze sibambe ukudla noma ukuzivikela, futhi singancamela ukucasha. Okwengeziwe mayelana nokuhlala uphephile

Amaqiniso
Its bell can grow up to 1 metre across, but most adults are much smaller.1
Crab larvae may form a parasitic relationship with it, using it for food and shelter.1
A single polyp can produce between 3 and 10 young jellyfish called ephyrae in about 7 to 10 days.1
Its population has increased in recent years, which may be linked to climate change and major changes to ocean ecosystems.1
Its stinging tentacles are used to catch its prey, and the adults are eaten by sea turtles and some fish.1
Umqothuli wezinganekwane
Inganekwane: It is the only sea nettle found in South America.
Iqiniso: Despite its common name, it is not the only sea nettle in the region. C. lactea is another sea nettle found there.1

- Fertilised eggs drift in the ocean, and often attach to the arms of adults for safety. They develop into swimming larvae called planulae, which later settle and grow into polyps.1
