Moon jellyfishes, Aurelia aurita (Linnaeus, 1758), aka saucer jellies, moon jellies and common sea jellies, range between 5- 40 cm in diameter.They can be recognized by their delicate and exquisite coloration, often in patterns of spots and streaks.he moon jelly is carnivorous and feeds on zooplankton. Their primary foods include small plankton organisms such as mollusks, crustaceans, tunicate larvae, copepods, rotifers, nematodes, young polychaetes, protozoans, diatoms and eggs. They have also been observed eating small hydromedusae and ctenophores.
During their life cycle, jellyfish experience an alternation of generations in which one generation (the medussa) reproduces sexually and the next generation (the polyp) reproduces asexually. The medusa form is the dominant and most recognized form of the jellyfish. Overall, the basic stages in the life cycle of a jellyfish include: egg and sperm planula larva polyp (or scyphistoma) polyp hydroid colony (or strobilating scyphistomata) ephyra medusa Egg and Sperm Jellyfish reproduce sexually so adult jellyfish are either male or female.
