Published online by Cambridge University Press: 11 May 2009
Extract
The characteristics of the genus Pelagia are discussed.
It is concluded that two good species, P. noctiluca (Forskål) and P. flaveola Eschscholtz, are already described.
A third species P. colorata n.sp. has been erected for the medusa recorded from time to time from the coast of California which has been reported previously as P. noctiluca var. panopyra.
