THE GIRDLE OF VENUS. 
This is the most beautiful of all the comb-bearing Jelly-fish. It differs much in shape from its near allies, the Sea-Gooseberries, but its habits are the same. It floats at the surface 
of the water, or moves along by means of an undulating movement and the vibration of the combs. 
In the light it glows with iridescent colourings, but of itself it is transparent and 
almost colourless. It will reach a length of from two to three feet.
