description Nausithoe albida Overview
Nausithoe albida is a historical name for a coronate scyphozoan in the family Nausithoidae, originally reported from Messina, Italy. A 2023 morphological review synonymized it with Nausithoe punctata because the names share a Mediterranean type locality and the older name has no surviving holotype or sufficiently detailed description for reliable separation. Under that treatment, the organism is associated with the shallow-water, colonial-polyp and medusa life cycle documented for Nausithoe punctata.
