No, it's Cnidarian. Cnidarians were for a long time grouped with Ctenophores in the phylum Coelenterata, but increasing awareness of their differences caused them to be placed in separate phyla.

No. Jellyfish and other cnidarians, together with the comb jellies, form the group Radiata within the animal subkingdom Eumetazoa. The term "pseudocoelomate" refers to various phyla within the group Platyzoa other than the flatworms and gastrotriches (i.e., thornyheaded worms, rotifers, jaw worms, and the Symbions), where the coelom is greatly reduced due to extremely small size.
