EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured drawing depicts Periphylla periphylla, also known as the helmet jellyfish, an intriguing invertebrate discovered during the Discovery Expedition to Antarctica, led by Robert Falcon Scott, between 1901 and 1904. The illustration was created by the skilled hand of Dr. Edward Adrian Wilson on August 1, 1902, in the McMurdo Strait. The helmet jellyfish derives its name from its distinctive dome-shaped bell, which resembles a helmet, and its long trailing tentacles. This jellyfish is a member of the phylum Cnidaria, and more specifically, the class Hydrozoa and order Coronatae. Its scientific name, Periphylla periphylla, means "dwelling around" and "dwelling around," respectively, reflecting its preference for living in close proximity to other structures, such as kelp or rocks. Dr. Edward Adrian Wilson, a talented naturalist and artist, was a key member of the Discovery Expedition. His meticulous drawings and observations significantly contributed to the scientific knowledge of the Antarctic region. This illustration, in particular, showcases Wilson's remarkable attention to detail and his ability to capture the unique beauty of the helmet jellyfish. The helmet jellyfish is a fascinating example of the diverse range of marine life found in the Antarctic waters. Its intricate structure and captivating appearance continue to intrigue scientists and nature enthusiasts alike, making it an enduring symbol of the wonders of the natural world.
