Scientific Names of some common jellyfishes are:
- Aurelia aurita
- Cyanea capillata
- Cyanea cylindracea
- Cyaneaglauca
- Cyclotella diaphana
- Scyphozoa acanthocystis
The jellyfish is a medusa in the subphylum Medusozoa. Most jellyfish have an umbrella of umbrella cells covering their bell, a feeding stomach in the form of a mouth like structure called the oral hood, and their locomotion is accomplished with hundreds to thousands of cnidocytes lined with nematocysts that sting and paralyze prey.
