Deepstaria

Deepstaria is a genus of jellyfish known for their thin, sheet-like bodies. The genus is named after the Deep Star 4000, which collected the holotype of the type species, D. enigmatica.

Description
Characteristic features of this genus include: a large, thin umbrella, lack of tentacles, and long oral arms. Due to lack of tentacles and large size, Deepstaria captures prey by encapsulating the prey with its whole body.
