Long-term changes in the planktonic cnidarian community in a mesoscale area of the NW Mediterranean. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 In the present work, possible long-term changes in the planktonic cnidarian community were investigated by analyzing (1) species and community spatial distribution patterns, (2) variations in abundance and (3) changes in species richness during three ...

J Exp Biol, 2022 Although neural tissues in cnidarian hydroids have a nerve net structure, some cnidarian medusae contain well-defined nerve tracts. As an example, the hydrozoan medusa Aglantha digitale has neural feeding circuits that show an alignment and condensation,

Omnivory by the small cosmopolitan hydromedusa Aglaura hemistoma [PDF]
Limnology and Oceanography, 2005 We investigated the feeding of the small hydromedusa, Aglaura hemistoma(bell diameter , 4 mm), to determine if it occupies a trophic position similar to that of large medusae. Feeding was examined using gut-content analysis of preserved and unpreserved medusae and by analyzing prey-capture events using microvideographic techniques.

Diel Vertical Dynamics of Gelatinous Zooplankton (Cnidaria, Ctenophora and Thaliacea) in a Subtropical Stratified Ecosystem (South Brazilian Bight). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 The diel vertical dynamics of gelatinous zooplankton in physically stratified conditions over the 100-m isobath (~110 km offshore) in the South Brazilian Bight (26°45'S; 47°33'W) and the relationship to hydrography and food availability were analyzed by ...
