A creature or organism that bears or carries a disk-shaped body structure.
From Greek discus (disk) + -phore (bearer or carrier). Directly translates as 'one that bears a disk.'
In marine biology, a discophore isn't just any jellyfish—it's specifically one where that disk body is the defining feature that probably evolved because it's hydrodynamically perfect for drifting.
