Egg-Yolk Jellyfish (Phacellophora camtschatica) - stock photo
The Egg-Yolk Jellyfish (Phacellophora camtschatica) is a striking species known for its vibrant yellow, egg-like appearance. This jellyfish typically has a translucent, bell-shaped body with a distinct yellow or golden hue, making it stand out in the water. Its long, trailing tentacles are equipped with stinging cells, or nematocysts, which it uses to capture prey such as small fish and plankton.
It can be found in colder waters, often in the northern Pacific Ocean, and can grow to impressive sizes. Despite its stunning beauty, the Egg-Yolk Jellyfish's sting can be painful to humans, though it is rarely dangerous. This jellyfish plays an important role in marine ecosystems by helping to control the populations of its prey.
