Jellyfish found on the beaches of Bessin

One Thursday afternoon, several hundred small jellyfish were discovered on the beaches of Bessin, intriguing walkers. The press clipping kept in the archives reports that they had already been seen a few days earlier offshore, in the Bay of Seine.

The newspaper cautiously mentioned a common endemic species whose development would be favored by warming water in summer. He also put forward a possible explanation upon their arrival on the shore: the weather conditions of the previous weeks, marked by a northeast wind, could have pushed them back to the coast.

Described as devoid of tentacles, these jellyfish were found in Vierville-sur-Mer, as illustrated by the cut, but also in Saint-Laurent, Colleville-sur-Mer, Arromanches and Asnelles.

Reconstructed or uncertain passages:
- The text speaks of a Thursday; the red annotation indicates July 16, 2014. The rewrite keeps the Thursday mentioned in the article without assigning it a day of the month.
- The identification of the species and the effect of the wind are presented as hypotheses reported by the cut, without new zoological identification.
