There’s A Jellyfish Bonanza In Maltese Waters Going On Right Now

A veritable jellyfish bonanza is going on at the moment within Maltese waters, reported marine biologist Alan Deidun.

This is courtesy of cooling down of local seas, with various jellyfish species currently swimming off our coasts.

There are the mauve stinger Pelagia noctiluca), the fried egg jellyfish (Cotylorhiza tuberculata) and the Australian spotted jellyfish (Phyllorhiza punctata).

However, only the mauve stinger actually stings, said Deidun, as the other two don’t.
