Phacellophora, C. fuscescens, C. colorata, A. labiata

Description and Comments

Many jellies stuck on the surface, damaged and killed by large swells (13.4 ft @ M1 buoy). Many jellies still alive though throughout bay, made a transect from aquarium to Moss Landing. Saw several large specimens of C. colorata. Lots of juvenile C. fuscescens (<10 cm bell diameter) were present with the larger, mature medusae. Collected ~50 large Aurelia labiata. Water was so green you couldn't see more than a 1.5 meters deep.
