Cuninidae is a family of jellyfish in the order Narcomedusae.
Characteristics
Members of this family have dome-shaped bells and tentacles set above the undulating margin of the bell. There are gastric pouches containing the gonads situated in line with the tentacles, the number of pouches being the same as the number of tentacles. The pouches do not extend below the points of origin of the primary tentacles. Members of some genera have a peripheral canal system and others do not. There are no radial canals or secondary tentacles.[2]
