Comparative Aspects of Structure and Function of Cnidarian Neuropeptides
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2020 Cnidarians are early-branching animals in the eukaryotic tree of life. The phylum Cnidaria are divided into five classes: Scyphozoa (true jellyfish), Cubozoa (box jellyfish), Hydrozoa (species, Hydra and Hydractinia), Anthozoa (sea anemone, corals, and ...

Cell proliferation in cubozoan jellyfish Tripedalia cystophora and Alatina moseri. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Cubozoans (box jellyfish) undergo remarkable body reorganization throughout their life cycle when, first, they metamorphose from swimming larvae to sessile polyps, and second, through the metamorphosis from sessile polyps to free swimming medusae. In the

Use of eDNA to detect and study deadly box jellyfish [PDF]
This thesis explored the use of environmental DNA (eDNA) to detect and study box jellyfish (Chironex fleckeri) across key life-history stages. A highly specific eDNA assay enabled detection of medusae and polyps, uncovering spatially restricted ...

Box jellyfish diversity in Indian waters with an occurrence report of a deadly species of box jellyfish Chironex indrasaksajiae [PDF]
, 2023 Box jellyfish, are among the most toxic invertebrates in the world according to many studies (Barnes 1966; Gershwin et al., 2010). Box jellyfish envenomation is caused by nematocysts, which are produced by specialised cells called nematocytes through

Visual control of steering in the box jellyfishTripedalia cystophora [PDF]
, 2011 Box jellyfish carry an elaborate visual system consisting of 24 eyes, which they use for driving a number of behaviours. However, it is not known how visual input controls the swimming behaviour.

The bilaterally symmetric rhopalial nervous system of box jellyfish [PDF]
, 2006 Cubomedusae, or box jellyfish, have the most elaborate visual system of all cnidarians. They have 24 eyes of four morphological types, distributed on four sensory structures called rhopalia.
