Dining in the deep—Sunday brunch edition 🍽️
This little Aegina jelly knows the importance of a varied diet. Although they are observed frequently, we actually know little about this group of deep-sea jellies. Our researchers often find these tiny jellies feasting on much bigger deep-sea animals like comb jellies and siphonophores. Jellies in the genus Aegina are different from many other jellyfish because they typically have only four tentacles extending from the bell.
