aka ''The Lion's Mane''<br />
<br />
* Cyanea capillata was the sea creature [[Sherlock Holmes]] identified as the true cause of [[Fitzroy McPherson]]'s death ([[LION]] {{refcanon|LION|437}}).<br />
<br />
* [[Sherlock Holmes]] described it underwater as "a curious waving, vibrating, hairy creature" that looks like "a tangled mass torn from the mane of a lion" ([[LION]] {{refcanon|LION|439}}).<br />
<br />
* Back in his study, [[Sherlock Holmes]] named it directly: "Cyanea capillata is the miscreant's full name" ([[LION]] {{refcanon|LION|463}}).<br />
<br />
* The book extract [[Sherlock Holmes]] read called it "the fearful stinger, Cyanea capillata" ([[LION]] {{refcanon|LION|465}}).<br />
