5 pages, 3 figuresJubanyella plemmyris, a new genus and species of aeginid narcomedusan, is described from one complete specimen stranded on Potter Cove beach, King George Island, Southern Ocean. The new genus and species is proposed in order to accommodate the specimen described in the family Aeginidae; Jubanyella gen. nov. contains undivided stomach pouches, therefore necessitating a new diagnosis for this family. © The Author 2006.
