Mastigias in Puerto Rico

Description and Comments

Found this sighting on Instagram. I've heard of a few cases of Mastigias in Puerto Rico and of course in No Name Key in FL. None the less mildly disappointing. Here's the link to the original post in IG. https://instagram.com/p/3WysBswrAb/. A nice video that to me confirms Mastigias that's always open to discussion.

Keith Bayha here. Clearly Mastigias. The No Name Key animals have long terminal clubs as well. It's not clear exactly where this was taken.... along the coast or in a marine-ish lake, etc. It's unclear if there is one in that area, based on the map. In any case, it's close to Laguna Joyuda.
