; Jellyfish are part of the ​; sea monster class, not ​j jelly. However, the article implies that the term refers to the monsters that leave globs, which are those in the ​b blob or ​P pudding or ooze class. The only mention in the source code is in the 'blob'/'ooze'/'pudding'/'slime' encyclopedia entry, all of which are monsters that leave globs.
