Maximum depth range from Ref. 122852. Common along coasts (Ref. 122852). Neritic, estuarine, potentially pathogenic (Ref. 116114). Two isolated findings recorded the species offshore over the shelf-break front (Ref. 122852).

Life cycle and mating behavior Könsmognad | Reproduktion | Lek | Eggs | Fecundity | Larvae

Members of the class Scyphozoa are gonochoric. Life cycle: Egg is laid by the adult medusa which later develops into a free-living planula, then to a scyphistoma to a strobila, and lastly to a free-living young medusa.
