Divers have swum with a huge barrel jellyfish off the coast of Cornwall. Lizzie Daly, a biologist with Wild Ocean Week, said the creature was as big as her body. It is the largest species of jellyfish which is found in British waters, with the average diameter being about 40cm (16 inches). Image by underwater cameraman Dan Abbott.

This ghostly giant is a rare sight. But in November 2021, MBARI researchers spotted this giant phantom jelly (Stygiomedusa gigantea) with the ROV Doc Ricketts 990 meters (3,200 feet) deep in Monterey Bay. The bell of this deep-sea denizen is more than one meter (3.3 feet) across and trails four ribbon-like oral (or mouth) arms that can grow more than 10 meters (33 feet) in length. MBARI’s ROVs have logged thousands of dives, yet we have only seen this spectacular species nine times. The giant phantom jelly was first collected in 1899. Since then, scientists have only encountered this animal about 100 times. It appears to have a worldwide distribution and has been recorded in all ocean basins except for the Arctic. The challenges of accessing its deep-water habitat contribute to the relative scarcity of sightings for such a large and broadly distributed species. Historically, scientists relied on trawl nets to study deep-sea animals. These nets can be effective for studying hardy animals such as fishes, crustaceans, and squids, but jellies turn to gelatinous goo in trawl nets. The cameras on MBARI’s ROVs have allowed MBARI researchers to study these animals intact in their natural environment. High-definition—and now 4K—video of the giant phantom jelly captures stunning details about the animal’s appearance and behaviors that scientists would not have been able to see with a trawl-caught specimen.

Big enough to sink fishing boats, the Giant Nomura Jellyfish grows to over 2m long and up to 200kg, one of the world’s largest jellyfish. Rising sea temperatures has seen an increase in these monsters – and this year will see the biggest attack ever. This film captures an underwater attack unfolding onto Japan’s shores. We follow a fishing community that is being destroyed by huge blooms, a scientist racing to find a way to stop these monsters breeding, and a chef determined to introduce jellyfish to the Japanese palette. Is Global warming to blame? Can these Jellyfish blooms be stopped? Or are they taking over our oceans?

www.discoverynews.com For the first time ever, stygiomedusa gigantea, a gigantic jellyfish was caught on video by scientists in the Gulf of Mexico. Scientists say finding this massive species can provide better insight into habitat, behavior, and ecology of this mysterious creature.

Stygiomedusa gigantea is one of the largest invertebrate predators known in the ocean, yet little is understood about its ecology and behavior. Stygiomedusa lacks tentacles, but has four extraordinarily large oral arms that are presumably used to envelope prey. The swimming bell of this spectacular medusa can reach over one meter across with arms over ten meters long. A symbiotic relationship between Stygiomedusa and the fish, Thalassobathia pelagica, was confirmed in 2003 when scientists from the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute (MBARI) filmed the pair swimming together in the Gulf of California. The fish has adapted to using the medusa as a hiding place in its open ocean habitat. In twenty-seven years of scientific ROV surveys, researchers at MBARI have been lucky enough to observe this rare animal seven times, from depths of 750 meters down to 2187 meters.

There are more than 2,000 types of jellyfish in the world. And those are just the species that we know about! These strange yet wonderful animals have been floating through the world's oceans for the last 700 million years and will very likely outlive us all because even without a brain they have figured out how to not just endure, but thrive. Some can kill with a sting, others catch prey thanks to bioluminescence, and most of them are pretty to look at. So join us for today’s video, where we look at the top 15 incredible jellyfish species! #jellyfish #top15 Several segments are licensed under creative commons https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/legalcode For more video information, please visit our website.
