Cephea cephea (Forskål, 1775)
300mm

Another large jelliy at Kwaj, these are uncommon to rare and usually seen singly or with just a few in the vicinity. We have seen them more often along the seaward reef than in the lagoon. The knobby crown is composed of rather tough jelly material. This species appears to not have a powerful sting.
