It's not the first time that scientists have made a discovery about a slippery marine species by accident. You may have heard about the "immortal jellyfish" which was discovered by chance in the 1980s ...

The latest discoveries by researchers about a jellyfish, Turritopsis Dohrnii, indicate that the marine animal can reverse ageing to avoid dying. While reverse ageing has caught the attention of ...

The warty comb jelly, Mnemiopsis leidyi, a fascinatingly weird creature that can regenerate parts of its body, reproduce from ...

This indicated that the comb jellyfish might be capable of reverting back to a youthful, larval state under certain conditions. The researchers found that extreme stress seemed to trigger this ...

Turritopsis dohrnii follows a typical jellyfish life cycle, beginning as a larva and maturing into a polyp and then an adult ...

Comb jellies could be one of the first animals to have existed in the world as their presence goes back 700 million years.
