Info

Manania gwilliami Larson & Fautin, 1989

Color of subumbrella, calyx, and stalk variable, ranging from tan to magenta.

The Red Stalked Jelly prefers surge-swept pinnacles or rocky outcrops along open coast shores. It feeds tiny planctonic prey. The stalked Jelly can slowly creep along, or even cpletely detach from its anchoring site and be swept to an alternate location.

The name "gwilliami" refers to G.F. Gwilliam who described a number of stauromedusae in the mid-20th century.
