Description

The White-Spotted jellyfish, known scientifically as Phyllorhiza punctata, is a white bell shaped jelly with polka dots adorning its cap. The White-Spotted jellyfish is not a threat to humans as its sting and venom are very mild. The sting and venom of the White-Spotted jelly are so mild that it does not use its sting to hunt. Instead, the White-Spotted jellyfish filter feeds. Unfortunately, the White-Spotted jellyfish can filter feed in such massive quantities that it prevents other animals from being able to find food. This is problematic in areas where the White-Spotted jelly is an invasive species as these habitats do not have the jellyfish’s main predator to control its population. The White-Spotted jellyfish is native to the Pacific ocean between Australia and Japan.
