 | This is the sandbox page where you will draft your initial Wikipedia contribution.
If you're starting a new article, you can develop it here until it's ready to go live. If you're working on improvements to an existing article, copy only one section at a time of the article to this sandbox to work on, and be sure to use an edit summary linking to the article you copied from. Do not copy over the entire article. You can find additional instructions here. Remember to save your work regularly using the "Publish page" button. (It just means 'save'; it will still be in the sandbox.) You can add bold formatting to your additions to differentiate them from existing content. |

Haliclystus auricula is classified as a stalked jellyfish (Staurozoan) under the phylum Cnidaria[1]. Under its genus, H. auricula is considered It is the type species for its genus[2].
Article body
Name
The scientific name is credited to James-Clark in 1863[1]. However, in 2010, Natural England, The Guardian, and the Oxford University Museum of Natural History ran a competition asking members of the public to provide a common name for this species. The name "Kaleidoscope Jellyfish," submitted by Kepler Petzall, was eventually chosen. Runner-up names included Fractal flower jellyfish and Mermaid's trumpet jellyfish.
Description
H. auricula is 2-2.5 cm tall and funnel shaped with a long stalk, a central mouth, and eight radiating arms that can have at most 100 kidney-shaped tentacles that are found at the tip that is an identifying feature for this species[1]. the stalk accounting for half of the height of the organism. The remainder of the organism is shaped like a funnel, The coloring of H. auricula can range from a grey-ish green color to a reddish-brown color[1] and it is likely that they will often blend into the algae that they are attached to[3]. the colour of which varies across the species from grey/green to red/brown. It has eight arms which radiate out from a central mouth. Each arm is tipped by clusters of up to 100 tentacles and connected by a thin membrane. Primary tentacles known as anchors are located on the membrane margin between the arms. The kidney-shape of these appendages is a key distinguishing feature of this species.
