About: Cassiopea

An Entity of Type: insect, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Cassiopea (upside-down jellyfish) is a genus of true jellyfish and the only members of the family Cassiopeidae. They are found in warmer coastal regions around the world, including shallow mangrove swamps, mudflats, canals, and turtle grass flats in Florida, and the Caribbean and Micronesia. The medusa usually lives upside-down on the bottom, which has earned them the common name. These jellyfish partake in a symbiotic relationship with photosynthetic dinoflagellates and therefore, must lie upside-down in areas with sufficient light penetration to fuel their energy source. Where found, there may be numerous individuals with varying shades of white, blue, green and brown.

  • Cassiopea (auch: Mangrovenqualle) ist eine Gattung der Schirmquallen. Diese Quallen sind weltweit zu finden und leben häufig – aber nicht ausschließlich – in seichten, von Mangroven geprägten Küstengewässern. Dort halten sie sich bevorzugt auf sandigen oder von Seegras bewachsenen Flächen auf. Meistens trifft man sie in größeren Gruppen an. (de)

  • Cassiopea Péron & Lesueur, 1809 è un genere di meduse, unico genere appartenente alla famiglia Cassiopeidae. Questi animali, differentemente dalle meduse più note, vivono adagiate sul fondale marino con la bocca e i tentacoli rivolti verso l'alto. In questo modo le alghe simbionti che vivono nei tessuti dei tentacoli, sono esposti alla luce e possono compiere la fotosintesi. (it)
