[EN] This report provides a systematic account of the medusae collected from the southwest continental shelf of Africa between 0 and 200 m depth. The specimens were sampled by the cruises carried out by the Institut de Ciències del Mar (Barcelona, Spain) and the Sea Fisheries Research Institute (Cape Town, Republic of South Africa) from 1977 to 1986. The medusae represented 64 species distributed over three classes and 32 families. Illustrations are provided for all species recorded, and information on morphology and distribution are given for the majority. Four new species are described: two anthomedusae Leuckartiara adnata sp. n. and Dipurena baukalion sp. n., one leptomedusa Mitrocomella millardae sp. n., and the scyphomedusa Eupilema inexpectata sp. n.
[ES] En esta monografía se estudian las colecciones de medusas (hidromedusas. escifomedusas y cubomedusas) recolectadas en diferentes campañas realizadas por el Institut de Ciencies del Mar (Barcelona) y el Sea Fisheries Research Institut (Ciudad del Cabo, República Sudafricana) a lo largo de la plataforma continental del sudoeste de África desde 1977 a 1986. Se han estudiado un total de 64 especies de medusas distribuidas en tres clases y 32 familias. Los ejemplares se recolectaron mediante pescas de plancton efectuadas entre 0 y 200m de profundidad. Se han ilustrado todas las especies recolectadas y se acompaña cada una con un estudio de taxonomía y morfología y su distribución
