🛸 OCEAN ALIEN 🛸
The Venus Girdle, Cestum veneris, a comb jelly, is the only species of its genus!
It’s resembles a ribbon and can grow to be approximately 1m/40in in length and 5cm/2in wide! It has well developed musculature which allows it to swim with an undulating motion, as you can see at the start of the video!
This comb jelly of course has its characteristic iridescent edges which run the length of it’s ribbon body! These rainbow lights are a result of light refracting through their cilia!
