Four oral arms and long marginal tentacles that hang from the bell they be several feet. [http://animals.jrank.org/pages/1493/Jellyfish-Scyphozoa-SEA-NETTLE-Chrysaora-quinquecirrha-SPECIES-ACCOUNTS.html] Symptoms from sea nettle stings are similar to those of the lion’s mane. They are more of them during the summer, when people are likely to be swimming in the ocean, this species is thought to be responsible for most of the jellyfish stings that occur in South Carolina. Exercise caution if sea nettles are observed in the water | ||
The Sea nettle also has a swimming bell that can reach 10 inches (25 centimeters) in diameter, but most sea nettles are much smaller.

One of the very large tentacle emerges from between the stinging tentacles, and twice as many small tentacles arise from beneath the petals. They are present in alternate spaces between the petals. The narrow oral arms are long and filmy. The colors of medusae range from milky white to white with radiating purplish red stripes on the bell.
