傳說美人魚是以腰部為界,大多數為上半身是美麗的女人,下半身是披著鱗片的漂亮魚尾,整個軀體,既富有誘惑力,又便於迅速逃遁。有雌雄公母之分,它們沒有靈魂,像海水一樣無情;聲音通常像其外表一樣,具有欺騙性;一身兼有誘惑、虛榮、美麗、殘忍和絕望的愛情等多種特性。
既能在水底中生活,也能短暫待在乾燥的陸地上生存,加上由於近代人的設想,還能水陸兩棲,甚至擁有魔法能力。現代有眾多電影、動畫片、歌曲等形式都以此為名。
相關傳說:
很多民間傳說中都提到美人魚與人類結婚的故事。大多數情況下,男子偷走了人魚的帽子或腰帶,或是梳子和鏡子。這樣東西被妥善藏好的時候,人魚會跟他一起生活,一旦被她找到自己的失物,她就會回到海里。
一般情況下,人魚對人類而言是很危險的。他們贈與的禮物會帶來不幸,比如引發洪水之類的災難。在旅途中看到人魚是沉船的惡兆。他們有時渴望看到凡人被淹死,舉一個有名的例子:萊茵河的蘿萊莉[Lorelei]。
有的時候,他們引誘年輕人跟他們一同到水下生活,在康沃爾和英格蘭的一些教堂的長椅上就雕刻著這樣的故事。
西南太平洋群島上的美拉尼西亞人也有類似的神話傳說,他們的美人魚名為「阿達拉」(adaro),上半身為人形,下半身為魚形,居住在太陽里,經由彩虹來到地球,平時隱匿於海上的龍卷風之中。
不同於其它美人魚的是,阿達拉在美拉尼西亞人眼裡是一種危險的生物,他們會用飛魚襲擊人類,使他們昏迷不醒甚至死亡。
