Carukiidae is a family of box jellyfish within the Cubozoa class.undefined Carukiidae can be easily classified by its lack of cirri clumps that can be found inside the cubozoan stomach, as well as the size and the placement of its nematocysts.

'''Carukiidae uses nematocysts as a defense mechanism; it releases a venom from the tips of their nematocysts; which produces the Irukandji syndrome. Even though positions of spines on the shaft of the Carukiidae causes illness, there are areas on the body that does not. The rhopalial niche openings, ( Specialized structures to sense light ) of the Carukiidae do not cause any illness. The Carukiidae also has rhopalial horns, which are blind canalas of unknown function that push upward from the rhopalial niches.'''
