Abstract
Jellyfish are distributed around the world oceans
and estuaries, living from surface to greatest
depths. These gelatinous zooplankton, belonging
to Phylum Cnidaria, an ancient phylum of
organisms having about 10,000 species include
jellyfish, corals and sea anemones. Jellyfish
swarms are widespread and frequent in coastal
areas worldwide and considered as menace
due to their ecological and socio economic
consequences (Stabili et al., 2020).
