No worries Jamie. I agree that the specimens would have to be seen and carefully looked at in order to confirm an ID, and whether they are even "known to science". I should have said "I guess".
Cheers,

Hi Jahir and Nancy,
at the risk of starting a flood of emails, not sure I agree with Allan's ID (sorry Allan :-)). With the lack of tentacles and the lack of detail in your photo, it could really be a number of species.
You really need a piece of tentacle, some nematocysts and some detail on the medusal canals etc if you wnat to be sure of its ID.
