Phacellophora camtschatica, known as the fried egg jellyfish or the egg-yolk jellyfish, is a very large jellyfish, with a bell up to 60 cm in diameter and 16 clusters of up to a few dozen tentacles, each up to 6 m long. It has traditionally been included in the family Ulmaridae, but is now considered the only member of the family Phacellophoridae. Because the sting of this jellyfish is so weak, many small crustaceans, including larval crabs (Cancer gracilis) and Amphipoda, regularly ride on its bell and even steal food from its oral arms and tentacles. Order: Semaeostomeae, Family: Phacellophoridae, Genus: Phacellophora, Species: Phacellophora camtschatica Brandt, 1835. |
