"Peach blossom jellyfish", also known as "peach blossom fish", the whole body is transparent, the middle of the body seems to have four petal shapes, there are many small tentacles around, rhythmically relaxed during movement, surging up and down. Citizen Peng Han first discovered the "peach blossom jellyfish", he told this writer that when he was training in swimming that day, he found that he was surrounded by a large group of small creatures that could swim, which was very strange and interesting. So, some of them were fished out of the water and asked the experts for verification. After preliminary identification, the small organism is a "peach blossom jellyfish".
Huang Zhongwang, head of the biology teaching and research team of Lanshan County No. 2 Middle School, told the author that there are jellyfish in the water, indicating that the water quality of the water is quite good, so yesterday we found jellyfish next to a reservoir near the county seat, and we were surprised and very pleased at the same time. This also shows that the water quality of our Blue Mountains has further improved in recent years, and it also shows that the ecological environment of the Blue Mountains is getting better and better.
