Abstract

Unusual landings of a Cepheid jellyfish was observed at Jeerupalem landing centre , Srikakulam, northern Andhra Pradesh on 11th and 12th April 2023. Based on enquiry, it was found that mass swarming of the Cepheid jellyfish was observed from inshore coastal water. Jellyfish was caught in ring seine operated by outboard FRP boats (OAL-7.5-9.8m; engine capacity: 15HP) at a water depth of 20-30 m and discarded. Altogether 50 boats were operated per day, and each unit discarded an average of 25-30/kg of Cepheid jellyfish
