Carybdea Marsupialis
''Carybdea marsupialis'', is a venomous species of box jellyfish, in the small family (biology), family Carybdeidae within the class Cubozoa. Description ''Carybdea marsupialis'' is a small transparent jellyfish with a box-shaped bell about across, at the four lower corners of which are four elongated tentacles up to long. The bell has a number of small white or yellowish warts with stinging cells, and near the margin, equidistant from the tentacles, are four Rhopalium, rhopalia (sensory structures with Simple eye in invertebrates#Ocelli or eye spots, ocelli). This species can be distinguished from other similar species by the red banding on the tentacles. Distribution ''Carybdea marsupialis'' was once considered a widespread species found in warm oceans around the world. Taxonomy (biology), Taxonomic reviews have shown that most of these are other species in the genus ''Carybdea'', with the true ''C. marsupialis'' essentially restricted to the Mediterranean Sea.

Box Jellyfish
Box jellyfish (class Cubozoa) are cnidarian invertebrates distinguished by their box-like (i.e. cube-shaped) body. Some species of box jellyfish produce potent venom delivered by contact with their tentacles. Stings from some species, including ''Chironex fleckeri'', '' Carukia barnesi'', ''Malo kingi'', and a few others, are extremely painful and often fatal to humans. Taxonomy and systematics At least 51 species of box jellyfish were known as of 2018. These are grouped into two orders and eight families. A few new species have since been described, and it is likely that additional undescribed species remain. Cubozoa represents the smallest cnidarian class with approximately 50 species.
