Top 7 Interesting Big Red Jellyfish Facts

The discovery also created a completely new subfamily

The genus Tiburonia was placed inside a family of jellyfish known as the Ulmaridae. This consists of 13 different types of genera of jellyfish. Because the big red jellyfish didn’t fit into one of these genera, an entirely new subfamily was established called the Tiburoniinae. This subfamily was established shortly after it was first discovered in the year 2003 and the Tiburonia granrojo remains the only species in it.
