摘要：

A redescription of the species Chrysaora lactea from the western South Atlantic is given based on live and preserved specimens from the Brazilian, Uruguayan and Argentinean coasts, and a neotype specimen is designated. The species is one of the commonest scyphomedusae in Brazilian coastal waters, reaching up to 25 cm in bell diameter with several different colour patterns ( mainly milky-white). The species is recorded with certainty from Jamaica to the northern coast of Argentina, and can be distinguished from its congeners primarily by the order of the development of tentacles ( 2nd, 3rd, 1st, 3rd, 2nd).
