DrPlanktonguy, 8 months ago to random Weekend #Plankton #Factoid 🦐🦠 While most #Cnidaria live exclusively in marine systems, there are exceptions. One is Craspedacusta sowerbii, the freshwater "peach-blossom", a true hydrozoan #jellyfish with a velum attached to the top bell edge. Originally from the Yangtze system, they are now found on every continent except Antarctica. Very small, ~2cm diameter and transparent, they are easily overlooked, but I have sampled them in small still reservoirs. #Zooplankton https://theconversation.com/how-the-peach-blossom-jellyfish-is-spreading-across-north-america-213120 image/jpeg Hands holding a glass of water with floating jellyfish inside.
