There is a large member of the cubomedusan family, which has not yet been formally identified, that is very similar to Tamoya haplonema. It is present in Indo-Pacific tropical waters but is also present in colder Australian waters. A case of severe envenomation in South Queensland is discussed and its clinical and histological features are described. Vinegar inactivates the undischarged nematocysts of this species and is recommended as the initial first-aid treatment.
立方水母纲家族中有一个尚未正式鉴定的大型成员,它与哈氏嗜毒水母非常相似。它存在于印度-太平洋热带水域,但在澳大利亚较寒冷的水域也有发现。文中讨论了昆士兰南部一例严重中毒病例,并描述了其临床和组织学特征。醋能使该物种未排出的刺丝囊失活,因此推荐作为初始急救治疗方法。
