Phacellophora camtschatica
Description:
A large species known as the Fried Egg Jellyfish or as the Egg Yoke Jelly. Mainly found in the open oceans, this one was caught snooping about the south end of Haida Gwaii Islands, British Columbia. It actually eats other jellyfish, and is sufficiently odd to have been given its own Family, the Phacellophoridae.
