Attention Researchers in the Florida Keys:
Those charming little friends lovingly called "sea lice" are thick and
pesky in the neuston in Keys waters these days.
What exactly are they? I have heard everything from firecoral larvae to
small jelly's. Or can several types of tiny cnideria produce the same
response in sensitive individuals?
To quote an old song: "Gonna need an ocean ----- of calamine lotion"
Happy scratching!
