A single member of the jellyfish group Discomedusae; any disc-shaped jellyfish.
Singular form of discomedusae, formed by replacing the Latin plural ending -ae with singular designation; combines the same root elements (disco- + medusa) in singular form.
Scientific naming can be confusing because Latin plurals work differently than English — most people would guess 'discommedusa' is singular, but in Latin taxonomy, singular 'discomedusan' is often used in English even though the Latin form looks plural.
