Bell diameter to 300 mm.
Found in coastal and oceanic waters, on sheltered to open coasts; 0-20 m depth.

can reach at least 3 m, and can deliver a very painful sting. Feeds on small fish and
other planktonic animals. Commonly found close to shore in summer to autumn; can

(from eastern Australia).
