Scientists exploring the deep sea near Argentina have discovered a rare ghost jellyfish.
Stygiomedusa gigantea, more commonly known as the giant ghost jellyfish, was photographed 250 meters below sea level in the South Atlantic.
Scientists at the Schmidt Ocean Institute have recorded creatures that can grow up to 1 meter (3.3 feet) in diameter and have arm spans of up to 10 meters (33 feet).
The four arms, which look like long pink ribbons, are not stinging tentacles. Instead, jellyfish use them to catch prey of fish and plankton, according to the institute.
The team also discovered 28 potential new species, including corals, sea urchins and sea anemones.
