On many good Crimean beaches, signs like roads: In the circle of the diagonal line, an image of a creature similar to a bell with several ropes is crossed. They talk about protection against medical invasions. Many holidaymakers do not like this "marine cold" and fear him, although the Black Sea jellyfish cannot harm the person.
What types of jellyfish are found in the Black Sea
Black Sea jellyfish is quite numerous, but it is only an indicator of the number of individuals. Species here are not different - there are only two of them, however, as in the washing the Crimea in the northeast.
Often, near the beach line is found by Aurelia (Aurelia Aurita), or eared Medusa - relatively small, slow animal. It is almost transparent, and the dome has a bluish or pinkish shade. The increased eases are hung under it, similar to the rabbit ears (why appearance and got its name). These creations are not dangerous, the eyes and mucous membranes are burned (it is not necessary to try to eat them alive) or if the battleer falls into their tight mass.
There are in the Black Sea and poisonous jellyfish. The view is called Cornerot (Rhizostoma Pulmo). They are large - up to 60-70 cm in the diameter of the dome, in color - blue, blue or purple, with fleshy tentacles, smoking on the roots of trees, quickly float. Dangerous touch tentacles, so many deft people knowing features Meduse, calmly catch their hands, picking them up for the dome. But it is not worth doing to those who are not confident in their nerves and coordination.
Still in the Black Sea there are swords. They are beautifully phosphoressed in the dark. But these are representatives of a completely different group of organisms. They are completely harmless to people, and from the jellyfish clearly differ in the absence of a tental.
Dangerous, stinging, poisonous Black Sea jellyfish
As a rule, careless swimsters, talked with conferences, complain about bite. But it is incorrect. Jellyfish do not bite and do not stuff - their body does not have the parts for this. They are embarrassing - how does the nettle makes it. Clamps with poison they are designed to paralyze small livestocks for nutrition. They are on the tentacles.
Middle adult at a meeting with Aurelia will not feel anything, but little child or owner increased sensitivity Sometimes there is a slight redness and burning, but even the nettle leaf is much worse. Therefore, even 
Not intimidated insufficiently enlightened adults, willingly catch these inhabitants with buckets - it is interesting for them to see what strange creatures live in Maritime Stroy. Stock Foto Medusa in the Black Sea prove - in natural environment They are beautiful, look at them nice.
There are quite serious burns from the root. Large individuals leave after themselves the inflamed zone of the size of the plate, and the sensations will remind the pioneer aglee and jumping on the argument naked in the nettle thickets. It is impossible to die from this, but the affected place will remain red and annoyed a few hours.
To reduce the unpleasant sensations, it is desirable to wash the damaged part of the body with salt water and lubricate any means from insect bites (you can finished or some people). Further inflammation will be held. People prone to allergic reactions, it is better to take an antihistamine drug just in case (any as they use). It is worth a doctor only if painful manifestations are not going throughout the day or increase - this is a sign of an atypical reaction. But such cases are very rare.
It is important to remember that a truly dangerous jellyfish, such as a Pacific crossed or tropical giants, do not come across in the Black Sea. If there is a concern to fool, it is better not to swim with the medical invasion - this phenomenon rarely continues more than 2-3 days.
Jellyfish attack in Crimea
On the black Sea coast Crimea are peculiar nursing seasons. 
They come often in the middle. Why? Because "marine jelly", as well as tourists, loves well-swollen water.
For the same reason, the most susceptible to the invasions of the ZBK (, reindeer fellow), where there are extended, well-heated shames. But periodically they appear in significant quantities and others coastal lines. So, a couple of years ago a record number of jellyfish in, where there are few of them.
Often, jellyfish appear in coast after storms - they caught up with wind, because they are unable to withstand strong currents. Usually such an attack disappears after day. Separate individuals are found at the Crimea throughout the summer, but they do not interfere with anyone. As a rule, it is harmless and beautiful aurelia.
Medusa on the coast - the phenomenon is traditional, the measures have long been developed to combat them. So, special grids are installed that interfere with the floating jelly approach babe (these are their presence is indicated as described at the beginning of the sign). All the facts of appearances from the coast of the root are tracked on all, and rescuers are noting about this holidaymakers through loudspeakers or by split ads.
Tourist, never who had never seen jellyfish, should carefully examine the description and photographs of the conference to distinguish it from the harmless Aurelia and do not ask for trouble at the meeting. It is not difficult for a non-specialist - these inhabitants have a lot of differences.
Many Crimeans and guests of the peninsula refer to the roots and positively, if they remember that the Chinese and the Japanese consider them useful delicacy and are preparing called "Crystal Meat". His consumption contributes to normalization arterial pressure. So it is possible that the root of the Black Sea soon will escape from the owners of the sushi bars and Chinese restaurants.
It is important to understand that the Jellyfish of the Black Sea is an important component of the ecosystem. Consequently, if there are many of them near the beach - it means that it is necessary for someone. In conclusion, we offer an interesting video clip, pleasant viewing!
Some of the most ancient living organisms that are found on our planet are jellyfish. They are present in almost any large water bodies with salted water, so they can be found in almost all seas and oceans. What is the Black Sea jellyfish?
What is jellyfish?
As scientists say, jellyfish on the planet exist for a very long time. They appeared before, rather than the man. And for all this time, their lifestyle has not changed. Remained the same even appearance. What is interesting, the body of jellyfish almost completely consists of water. And if more precisely, 98% is water. Thanks to its type, one is called their "water umbrellas", while others consider them "floating bells".
Due to his form, these marine inhabitants can move very quickly in water. Their muscles that are flooded connective tissue, begin to shrink, which contributes to moving. In total, there are several thousand in the world. of different types Jellyfish. As for the Black Sea, only three types of such are represented here. marine inhabitants. And every rest on the Black Sea coast immediately arises the question: and how dangerous are they, do they imagine a threat if not a person's life, so his health?
Jellyfish of the Black Sea: What are their danger to a person?
To any diver should take into account that there are several inhabitants in the Black Sea, a meeting with which is undesirable:
- Medusa.
Although they do not imagine mortal danger, yet it is worthwhile to beware. What is dangerous jellyfish, what trouble can be expected from her?
If you take into account all three types of jellyfish, which live here, their main weapons are cutting cells. They have a special toxin. When it hits the skin of a person, it is able to cause a burn, something comparable with the rattles. So after meeting with jellyfish, though you don't get on hospital bedBut nevertheless unpleasant memories will be provided. Particularly needed to keep parents for their children. After all, jellyfish are often taken ashore. And in children, the skin is more sensitive than an adult.
Types of Jellyfish Black Sea
It is necessary to know that most jellyfish on the Black Sea coast falls on the second half of summer. There are three varieties here, and each view has its own distinctive features. The description is to start with jellyfish, which is most often found here.
1. Cornerota, which is called for its kind of blue jellyfish (Rhizostoma Pulmo). It is believed that this is the most popular inhabitant of this sea. it nautical predatorthat feeds not only worms, but also in small fish. Initially, he paralyzes them with his poison, and then calmly eats. The jellyfish consists of the top hat reaching in size up to half a meter, as well as lower fleshy growth. They fulfill the role oral cavity. It is very poisonous appearance Meduses that live in the Black Sea. They are capable of terrible so that the skin will appear on the skin as the thermal burn.

2. Aurelia (Aurelia Aurita), which does not represent almost no danger. Unless if you try, what this jellyfish taste. Skin covering I will not feel contact with her, but a slight burning and redness will appear on the mucous membrane. Most of all these jellyfish appears just in the midst bathing season. The diameter of their dome can reach up to 40 cm.

3. Mnemiopsis (Mnemiopsis Leidyi) does not have neither poisoning or even a tental. In fact, this jellyfish appeared here from afar - from the shores of America. But she passed here and now it is considered to be a semi-corded inhabitant of the Black Sea water area. This jellyfish for man is completely harmless. Today everything is done in order to reduce its population.
Question: I wonder if there are views of jellyfish that can live in aquarium with freshwater? Media-suits are really cool, but I have only a freshwater aquarium.
Answer: Yes, there are jellyfish living in fresh water. For example, Craspedacusta Sowerbyi.. These are freshwater jellyfish that live almost all continents, but very rarely found in Africa. Even before 1908 there were no mention of these animals. Freshwater jellyfish inhabit lakes, reservoirs, and sometimes artificial water bodies, such as career filled with water or shafts. Although these jellyfish are different, however, they all prefer more standing water of the lake or reservoir than the rapid turbulent flow of the river.
Unfortunately, I do not know a single person who would contain such jellyfish in home aquarium. And I do not know any pet store where they would sell them. Since these water inhabitants Require special conditions of content, it is difficult for me to recommend specific accessories for aquarium. As far as I know, these jellyfish most often prefer to be located at the bottom of the reservoir, thus maintaining energy to capture production and reproduction.
Freshwater jellyfish usually feed on zooplankton. With the help of non-namocytes (cutting cells), they are stuffed and paralyzed prey, which gives them the opportunity to master it. These jellyfish also know how to adapt to cold water. In the cold course of the year, they fold and practically fall into the hibernation until the water temperature begins to grow again.
Freshwater jellyfish is quite difficult to keep in the home aquarium. You must make sure that the filtering system will not drag the medus in the filter. In this case, it is better to use a sponge filter. Also make sure that the movement of water in the aquarium is minimal. Most importantly, remember that meduzam needs a permanent source of food, shrimp and Daphnes will suit it best.
Otherwise, there is very little information on how to contain freshwater jellyfish. Perhaps this is due to the fact that few people hold the jellyfish, but even if they hold, then, rather, marine, and not freshwater. Interestingly, the cutting cells of freshwater jellyfish are not so strong to worry a person. In this respect, they are safer than their sea counterparts. We will be glad if someone shares its experience in the content of freshwater jellyfish in domestic or laboratory conditions.
Greek heroes Males under the look of the mythical witch Medusa Gorgon. Will make a revenge on shock and at the same time the largest jellyfish in the world is Arctic cyania? This floating nightmare has a two-meter in diameter of the bell and pulls the tentacles to 30 m! Learn the truth about gigantic jellyfish, their size and lifestyle, as well as about the chances of a meeting with them in nature.
First place: Arctic cyania - Long animal planet
The winner of the longest body prefers the cold waters of the White, Kara and Barents Seas, although often descends into the latitude of Boston and Northern Portugal. In 1870, the inhabitants of one of the villages on the shore of the Massachusetts Bay came out to gather a fish left on the sand after the storm, and discovered the giant jellyfish thrown by the sea.
Animal measurements showed:
- 7.5 feet (2.3 m) - the scope of the bell;
- 120 feet (36.6 m) - the length of the proven;
- 121.4 feet (37 m) - full length from the top of the top tips.
Even the blue whale does not reach the Cyania Recorder 3.5 m!
What looks like and what a giant jellyfish
Cyania's flickering greenish light closer to the edges is painted burgundy and divided into 16 blades. The numerous tentacles of the animal stretch over a dome of a sloppy pink loop. Thanks to them, the jellyfish received the second name - the loyalty.
For a person, meeting with the arctic giant is fraught with painful burns. National geographical Society The United States considers cyanus potentially deadly, although the case of death from its poison was recorded only once.
Second place: Nomura Bell - Yellow Giant From Yellow Sea
Kanihi Nomura, Zoologist and at the same time the director of the fishery of the Japanese Fukui Prefecture, puzzled by clogging by networks of jerseen, found and described this species in 1921. An animal resembles a romal of confused fibers from the central part of the pumpkin fetus hanging from a two-meter bell. The second name is giant - the lion's mane.
The tentacles have small, but the mass of one copy reaches 200 kg. In 2009, a fishing vessel, whose crew fought with Nomurov, filled with Nomurov, was turned over near the shores of Japan. Through fishermen throw away lion grip From the networks end: numerous tentacles always find a small strip of open skin even on a person, dressed in the marine robe.
What burns the bell of the Nomura and his counterpart
Medusa is slow and awkwards, caught prey to them difficult to hold. So you have to act a paralyzing poison, grow cutting cells with rolled thread-harpoon inside. When the wrapping or fish concerns the tiny protrusion near such a cell, the thread instantly fits, it lines in the side and injected poison.
Meduse toxins have little studied, but it has been established that one of their components is a histamine responsible for harsh allergic reaction. Other substances in the composition of the poison affect the nervous system, paralyzing the plankton trifle and causing the strongest pain marine mammals and man.
Third place: Chrysora - Gentle and burning beauty
Chrysora chose the East and West shelves of the North American continent. Her dome reaches a meter in diameter, painted in sandy color with dark radial stripes. From the edges of the dome hanging 24 thin cutting tentacles up to 5 m long. Around the mouth, located on the bottom side of the dome, 4 more tentacles are growing, lush, as if Boa from feathers. All together resembles a ladies hat with ribbons.
The second name of the underwater beauty is marine nettle. Like the plant of the same name, Chrysorad sharply, hurts, but not long. An hour later, burning and itching is stopped, and redness passes for the next day.
As Chrysora migrate
It is the opinion that jellyfish is floating only in the flow. However, they are easily moved, where they want, gaining water under the dome and throwing it with strong shocks. This method of movement is called reactive.
Chrysora make multi-day sea travel Looking for mining: comb jellyfish and plankton. Sometimes they are assembled in tens of thousands of individuals - zoologists call this phenomenon with "ROOM" or "blooming". Why chrisory behave this way, still have to explore.
Fourth place: purple striped jellyfish
it rare creature It dwells off the coast of California. The diameter of its bell reaches 70 cm, the length of thin edge tapers - 2 m. In the youth of the jelosis is colorless, it is decorated barely outlined dark stripes and a cant around the edge of the dome. With age, the strips become bright brown, and the meduza itself acquires a rich inherbird.
Burns applied with purple striped jellyfish are not fatal, but unpleasant, as if a shock. In 2012, 130 vacationers on the beach of the Bay of Monterey were injured from a meeting with a numerous group of young, and therefore poorly distinguishable in the water of animals.
Why is the body of jellyfish transparent?
The jellyf has no single internal organ. Their flesh is two rows of cells, a thick layer of a centered substance is laid between them, which consists of water from water. Jellywood is made of liquid glass.
Cells are divided among themselves all the work of the body. Some produce toxins, others digest production, are third responsible for sensitivity. There are cells, whose obligations include the operational restoration of the turtles shoved and other predators of the body parts. But since the cells are only two layers, through the medus you can see the general outlines of objects.
Fifth place: Black Sea Cornerot
For the Mediterranean and Black Seas is the most large representative Jellyfish. The diameter of the bell reaches 60 cm, mass - 10 kg. Long detective tentacles, characteristic of chrysore or cyane, no conference. There are small robust blades that resemble young spores reused seedlings.
Cornernotes are unauthorized because there is a single painted area on their transparent colorless body - a purple cant dome. Swimwear detect medusa when they touch the floating jelly. For most people, this animal is safe, and only strong allergies react to its soft touch by scattering urticaria.
Can the jellyfish feel
Vision, rumor, taste is not about jellyfish. Too primitive nervous system. However, the sailors have long noticed that in front of the storm the root disappear, go away from the coast.
It turned out that, along the edges of the dome, animals wear tubes with lime crystallines. In response to infrasounds that appear in the sea 10-15 hours before the storm, the crystals begin to move and hide microscopic sensitive tubercles.
The signal is perceived nerve cells. Now the device "Ear of Medusa" appeared in armament of the sailors, which is notger in advance about the approximation.
The world's largest jellyfish cyania and her smaller sisters are one of the most beautiful inhabitants of the ocean. They are slow and mysteriously dancing in the thickness of salt water hundreds of millions of years. During this time, they acquired gentle paints, burning poisons and the finest hearing. But zoologists are confident that not all the secrets of transparent beauties are revealed.
"Crystal meat" - so figuratively and poetically called jellyfish residents of China.
In China I. South KoreaIf there is no dishes from the jellyfish in the fish restaurant menu, it does not give him the right to get the highest category.
Fisheries Meduses are developed mainly in countries south-East Asia: China, Japan, Korea, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia and the Philippines. Among edible jellyfish in these countries are most popular: Ropilem and Aurelia. The cost of one ton of salted jellyfish can reach 5-8 thousand US dollars.
In China, where jellyfish ancient times are considered to be a favorite delicacy, among the mined jellyfish separates the mouth blades and wash the umbrella until it is removed internal organs From mucus. Thus, in the future, it is like that, in fact, only the jelly mass of the umbrella. There is quite complex - from 3 to 6 stages - and long-term - from 20 to 40 days - the procedure for soaking umbrellas of jellyfish in a mixed solution crash salt and alum (or juice and leaf of dubbing plant species). Dehydrated and hardened product - "Crystal meat" - used in the future for the preparation of a wide variety of dishes. Salted jellyfish is added to salads, as well as eaten in boiled and fried form, seasoning with peppers, cinnamon and nutmeg. Medusa challenge itself, so when cooking is desirable additive of various spices.
In Japan, where the jellyfish is also considered a delicacy, the product is not less thorough treatment. The jellyfish umbrella is separated from the tentacles, dried and salted, and the salty jellyfish immediately before cooking is despicable.
Medusa to rarity is useful, it contains various vitamins and minerals (manganese, iron, chrome, copper, 17 amino acids). The Japanese believe that jellyfish contribute to longevity. The Chinese calls jellyfish "crystal meat", they treat them tracheitis and regulate blood pressure.
Meduses are put in salads and desserts, make sushi and rolls from them and even apply in hot dishes. A total of several dozen culinary masterpieces are created from Jellyfish in China and Japan. The main conditions of a successful dish are a professional chef and a fresh product. Frozen jellyfish is absolutely excluded - after defrosting it turns into a nasty slimy alive. Therefore, the jellyfish is not exported, and it is impossible to taste this delicacy far from its habitat.

In the kitchen of some eastern peoples of jellyfish, fried in oil - casual dish. For use in food, a bluish-green jellyfish is quite suitable, the bell of which reaches 60-70 cm. In the waters of the southern Primorye, it meets in large quantities In June-August. You can catch it with saccias. When processing jellyfish, umbrellas are used - a substance that resembles a dense jelly, sometimes fleshy appendages, similar to appearance on color cabbage. The bell of jellyfish is thoroughly washed in sea waterand then put on clean lists Plywood and dried in the sun.
Medusa can be peeling first and then dried in the sun.
In dried jellyfish, more than 10% of protein, fat and other useful substances are contained.
Here is an example of one of the popular Chinese salads. Medusa is dumping in water, insulated in a concentrated brine, after three weeks, removed and washed, while the main thing is not to damage the fragile "body". Then it is again soaked in water a quarter of an hour and lowered for 10-75 seconds in boiling water - again the time is very important, extra 3 seconds - and gentle "meat" turns into old rubber. The finished medus is cut with straws, mixed with shrimps, garlic, soy sauce and sesame oil. The Japanese jellyfish are marinate, and then also cut with straw and mixed with bundled vegetables and greens, and they are added to fruit jelly and marmalands.
