🌊 These jellyfish were spotted in Bohol, Philippines.

🌊 The jellyfish seen here are likely Thimble jellyfish (Linuche unguiculata).

🌊 Thimble jellyfish are commonly found in warm coastal waters, including the Caribbean, Gulf of Mexico, and the Philippines.

🌊 These jellyfish can cause a mild sting through their nematocysts, which are specialised cells that deliver venom.

🌊 The sting of Thimble jellyfish can lead to “seabather’s eruption,” a condition causing an itchy, red rash due to their larvae being trapped under bathing suits and triggering a skin reaction.

🌊 Despite their small size, Thimble jellyfish can pose a significant nuisance to swimmers and divers because of their venomous stings
