| Popis: | During the summers of 1977, 1978 and 1979, large swarms of the coelenterate Pelagia noctiluca appeared in the northern Adriatic Sea. An estimated 250,000 persons were stung along northern Yugoslavian coasts during the summer months of 1978. These scyphomedusa also caused occupational difficulties by fouling the driving parts of boat motors and fishing gear. |
