Thimble Jellyfish

The thimble jellyfish (Linuche unguiculata) is a species of cnidarian found in the warm West Atlantic Ocean, including the Caribbean. It is a tiny jellyfish with a straight-sided, flat-topped bell. This jellyfish is the most common cause of seabather's eruption, a reaction caused by the injection of juvenile jellyfish nematocysts into human skin.

Les Linuchidae sont une famille des méduses (groupe de cnidaires) de l'ordre des Coronatae.
