They don’t have stinging tentacles, instead entrapping their prey with those four enormous limbs.

Like a big red spaceship cruising the ocean depths, Tiburonia granrojo truly is otherworldly. Despite its large size, scientists didn't encounter it until 1993. These giant jellies are found between 600–2,100 meters (2,000–7,000 feet) and the bell can reach up to one meter (3.3 feet) across. The fact that scientists could miss something so big and with such a wide range suggests that many more surprises await us in our exploration of the deep sea.
MBARI researcher George Matsumoto discovered and described this giant red medusa with several colleagues. It was named 𝘛𝘪𝘣𝘶𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘪𝘢 𝘨𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘳𝘰𝘫𝘰 in recognition of the research contributions of the ROV Tiburon, retired by MBARI in 2008. The species name— granrojo means big red, a descriptive name that biologists used to refer to this jelly until it was formally named.
