  Love those elongated squishies – I haven’t seen siphonophores before. Thanks for sharing.

  I agree with Haddock’s final comment. An unhealthy ocean caused by warming is going to be unhealthy for jellies and siphonophores, too. Overpopulation can’t be a good think, can it? Seems rather Malthusian to me.
