Abstract:
This study presents first records of three species of scyphozoan jellyfishes Chrysaora hysoscella, Chrysaora cf. kynthia and Lychnorhiza malayensis from Pakistani coast based upon specimens obtained from trawl by-catch. No species from these genera were previously known from the region. Scyphomedusae of Pakistan though, currently represented by nine species (see Gul et al., 2015) comprise a neglected group of marine invertebrate fauna in the region.
