    Hi @shuangerli

    As for this particular one, it seems to be a decaying Medusa. You can actually see most of it in this frame, the neighbouring one shows only a small portion: APK0007x2j

    In general, when you can see only a part of the organism and you are not able to identify it anyhow, than it is better not to mark it, and hope it is caught in one of the neighbouring frames 😃 If you can tell/guess what it is, than it is better to mark it.

    Hope this helps 😃 Keep asking when in troubles! We're all happy to help you 😃

    Ah, and the left organism, which is also divided into two frames, it is a #Doliolid! I would mark it since I can ID it from the visible part (you'll become able to recognize them too, very soon. I believe so!)
