Description and Comments

From the 25th of October until 9th of November I have seen numerous Rhopilema jellyfish in the coasts of the strait of Gibraltar (at least 8-10 individuals- maybe more). On the beaches of Tarifa and Barbate.

Some of the animals were fairly big and heavy, with a diametre of 30cm or more. Some between 15-30cm.
