Sea Gooseberry
Pleurobrachia pileus
I almost missed this tiny creature while walking past. It is a Sea Gooseberry, a type of comb jelly. I think I was very lucky to see it as I don't imagine they last long when washed up. Apparently they are luminescent at night.
The extras include another jelly-like creature I found, I think it is a hydroid medusa as it lacks any of the internal organs of a jellyfish.
Also, Happy Official Birthday to Davros who has been with us for two years now! She is behind bars as she was hiding a bit when I tried to take a photo. She is such a sweetiepie.
