Adult medusa (plate 41, fig. l).âThis is one of the largest hydromedusae found upon thecoast of the United States. The bell is about 100 mm. in diameter and 65 mm. in gelatinous substance is thick at the apex, but gradually becomes thinner toward marginof bell. There are normally 32 well-developed tentacles; 8 of these are about as long as thebell-diameter, 8 others about half as long, and the 16 others about one-quarter as long as bell-diameter. The basal bulbs of the tentacles are long, fleshy, and ribbon-like, with a strandof longitudinal muscle fibers on their inner (velar) sides and their distal ends are usually.
