Resumen

The scyphozoan genus Aurelia has been recorded as occurring circumglobally between 70°N to 55°S. However, it has not been reported from the Pacific coast of South America. Here, we describe the occurrence of Aurelia in the fjords of Chile and use morphology and a simple "DNA barcoding" sequence similarity comparison to identify the species as most probably A. aurita. This species likely is not indigenous to this region.
