Description
It takes about three months to rear the jellies from polyps to ephyrae, the adult stage. The bell, of Pacific sea nettles is dish-shaped, with shallow scallops around the margin. Twenty-four long, ribbon-like, thin tentacles stream from the bell’s margin and four long, lacy, pointed oral arms spiral out counterclockwise from the center of the bell. The bell is covered with warts that contain nematocysts (stinging cells).
