Repost: Aquatilis // When Cestum veneris (Venus Girdle) is disturbed it tries to swim away from the potential threat with its undulating powers, but if it doesn't work, the creature at some point stops and curls up into a double helix, surrounding the ''flight control center'' with several layers of jelly wings.

A bloom of the Venus girdle (Cestum veneris), one of the largest known comb jelly colonies, was observed today at Dwejra, Gozo in the Maltese archipelago. Marine biologist Alan Deidun noted that comb jellies are harmless to humans, as they feed through sticky tentacles rather than stinging ones, unlike jellyfish. This rare sighting highlights the diversity of marine life in Maltese waters and offers a unique opportunity to observe one of the ocean’s more unusual and delicate creatures. Have you

Ian Haggerty on Instagram: "A Venus’ girdle drifting through the open ocean, flashing with natural bioluminescence. One of the strangest animals on Earth — and this is 100% real. Fun facts: • Not a jellyfish — it’s a comb jelly (ctenophore) • The flashing “rainbow” lights are light diffraction, not color • One of the longest planktonic animals in the ocean • Completely harmless and cannot sting • Moves using thousands of tiny beating cilia Keywords: bioluminescence, deep ocean, alien sea creatur

TrendSnap on Instagram: "The X post showcases rare underwater footage of Cestus veneris, or Venus' girdle, a transparent, ribbon-like ctenophore that undulates through midwater, creating an alien-like glow from light scattering on its cilia. Ctenophores such as this evolved over 500 million years ago, predating jellyfish, and propel via eight rows of comb plates; peer-reviewed studies in Nature (2013) confirm their ancient lineage, underscoring oceanic biodiversity beyond common species."

Ian Haggerty on Instagram: "Drifting weightlessly through the blue, a Venus’ girdle glides past my dive watch like something from another planet. Its transparent ribbon-shaped body pulses with shimmering flashes of light, rippling along its edges as it moves.

Ian Haggerty on Instagram: "A Venus’ Girdle drifted silently around my dive torch like something from another world. Glowing softly in the dark water, this delicate, ribbon-shaped jelly moved with slow, graceful pulses, almost orbiting the light as if curious rather than alarmed. Encounters like this feel less like watching wildlife and more like witnessing living ocean magic — fragile, ancient, and completely mesmerizing. The Venus’ Girdle is a reminder that some of the ocean’s most incredible
