Moon Jelly

Type: Tidal
Region: Southern
Location: Newtowne Neck State Park

This isn't exactly a fish, but are you able to identify what species of jellyfish that this is? It was on the rocks on the Potomac River at Newtowne Neck State Park.

DNR Response: It looks like a moon jelly. Here is a link with more information about moon jellies: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aurelia_aurita
