Best Answer

All jellyfish can sting.

Box jellies are the most venomous marine animal known to mankind. Two species, commonly known as the Sea Wasp or Marine Stinger [Chironex Fleckeri] and the Irukandji [Carukia barnesi] are often fatal to humans. They are indigenous to Northern Australia, but show up occasionally in other Indo-Pacific areas, including Hawaii.

Other sea jellies, such as the Portuguese Man of War and the Lion's Mane jellyfish can cause very painful stings, but rarely are life threatening. Most of the really common types (Moon, Comb, and Sea Nettle) have little to slightly annoying stings. Quite a few types do not even have stingers capable of penetrating human skin. Eyes can be a different story, however, so caution should always be used.
