This specie is one of the most weird and wondrous fascinating sea specie on earth and what really wow’s me is that according to the scientist, this is one of the 10 most weird life forms recently found here on earth!
This sea creature is called a Dendrogramma Enigmatica and it kind of looks like a mushroom but in jelly form. This creature is in Jelly form because it has a dense layer of jelly like material betweens it’s outer skin and inner stomach cell layers.Their stalk is about 7.8 mm in length and cap about 11 mm. The top of the specie ( the part that looks like a mushroom top ) is called a disc and that disc has little stalks inside of it.
The Dendrogramm
Where do they eat and What do they eat? from the bottom or the top? Well, at the end of its stalk is called a mouth field and in that mouth field is lobes and that is where they gobble up their food I guess.They eat Plankton, Crustaceans, Fish eggs, Small Fish and Jelly fish. They live in the South East of Australia and they were collected at water depths of 400 meter. They are also a taxonomic genus. These little species are also known as members of the Dendrogram Mantidae family.
