Thanks PK Is very interesting indeed because is in the Artic wow, has to be seen under a microscope from an expert to have and ID in this case will be good just to edit the name and just put Comb Jellyfish. hope some users that has spotting´s from the Artic can help :)

This is a comb jellyfish. Only 100–150 species have been validated, and possibly another 25 have not been fully described and named.
So is important that you tray to describe the most you can your spotting´s, like how big in cm or mm are, where do you see it on the beach or a river bank Thanks for sharing it.
