Salinity regulates early life-history transitions in the box jellyfish Carybdea prototypus

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution
Carybdea prototypus has potent venom and is responsible for serious envenomation incidents in the coastal regions of Japan. However, the natural habitat of the benthic polyp, which is a source of medusae, has not yet been identified.

Progress and Challenges in Phylogenomics and Genomics of Lophotrochozoa/Spiralia

Zoologica Scripta, Volume 55, Issue 4, Page 521-544, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Lophotrochozoa is one of the three major bilaterian groups comprising more than half of the bilaterian phyla. Lophotrochozoa includes among others Mollusca, Annelida, Platyhelminthes and Rotifera. Despite representing such a large proportion of animal diversity, they are historically understudied and genomic resources have been scarce. However,
