Get your students involved in this... name a new jelly!

[Sean Nash]

Perhaps this is a good "final week" mini-lesson? =>

Toss in your two cents to the official naming contest for the Bonaire Box Jellyfish. Come on, you know you love Latin.

I received a message about this a day or so ago on a marine science listserv. Go here to check out the details of the contest. And of course... you'll want to know something about the little guy before you brand him for life, right? Check out the summary page for more info. This is also a good way to take a look at naming rules, and more specifically those of the ICZN.

Come on, let's see if we can get one of our students to nail this one.

Good luck!
;)
