Irukandji syndrome is a severe systemic toxicity caused by the sting of the Cubozoa Carukia barnesi, also known as the box jellyfish. Symptoms include nausea, vomiting, severe pain, headache, hypertension, and potentially life-threatening cardiovascular complications. Seabather's eruption is caused by the stings of cnidarians such as jellyfish and anemones, but it is a much less severe condition. Latrodectus facies is a rare manifestation of envenomation by black widow spiders, while necrotic arachnidism is a condition caused by the bites of spiders that produce necrotic venom, such as the brown recluse spider.
