Portuguese boat (Physalia physalis)

The second name for jellyfish is physalia. Although this is rather not even a jellyfish, but a whole colony of polypoid and medusoid individuals. The «bite» of a Portuguese boat is extremely dangerous and painful (sensations are compared to hitting the skin with a whip). The main risk is the systemic effects of the poison.
