A little lantern for the deep. ❤️🏮⁠

Pandea rubra, also known as the red paper lantern jelly, may have a bell measuring just eight centimeters (about three inches) across, but its graceful tentacles can stretch much farther, trailing behind as it drifts through the water.⁠ ⁠ These delicate jellies are found in oceans around the world, from the surface to depths of 3,300 meters (10,000 feet), where they feed on tiny krill and copepods. Their transparent dome and flowing tentacles are a reminder that some of the ocean's most remarkable animals are also among its smallest.
