Identification of <i>Cassiopea</i> sp. in Lake Macquarie, Australia and revision of the taxonomic status of <i>Cassiopea maremetens</i> Gershwin, Zeidler & Davie, 2010 (Cnidaria: Scyphozoa: Cassiopeidae). [PDF]
PeerJScyphozoans of the genus Cassiopea are notable for their unusual benthic habit of lying upside-down with their exumbrella resting on the substrate and oral arms facing upwards resulting in their common name “upside-down jellyfish”.

Heat stress disrupts early development and photosymbiosis in Cassiopea jellyfish. [PDF]
PLoS OnePhotosymbioses between Cnidarians and algae are widespread in marine ecosystems. The jellyfish Cassiopea-Symbiodinium symbiosis serves as a valuable model for studying host-symbiont interactions in photosymbiotic organisms.

Cassiopea xamachana microbiome across anatomy, development, and geography. [PDF]
PLoS OneThe upside-down jellyfish holobiont, Cassiopea xamachana, is a useful model system for tri-partite interactions between the cnidarian host, the photosymbiont, and the bacterial microbiome. While the interaction between the host and photosymbiont has been

Impacts of Light and Food Availability on Early Development of Cassiopea Medusae
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 The Cassiopea genus is an emergent focus for behavioral, ecological, and genetic research. Cassiopea ephyrae, a key intermediate in the life cycle of this benthic jellyfish, have been left out of much work on the genus.
