No surprise that comb jellies poop

Science, 2016
As one of the organizers of the recent meeting on comb jellies (ctenophores), I feel obliged to comment on the News In Depth story “Comb jelly ‘anus’ guts ideas on origin of through-gut” (A. Maxmen, 25 March, p.

The phylogenetic position of the comb jellies (Ctenophora) and the importance of taxonomic sampling

Cladistics, 2004
AbstractThe transition to a vermiform body shape is one of the most important events in animal evolution, having led to the impressive radiation of Bilateria. However, the sister group of Bilateria has remained obscure. Cladistic analyses of morphology indicate that Ctenophora is the sister group of Bilateria.

Comb Jellies (Ctenophora): A Model for Basal Metazoan Evolution and Development

Cold Spring Harbor Protocols, 2008
INTRODUCTIONCtenophores, or comb jellies, are a group of marine organisms whose unique biological features and phylogenetic placement make them a key taxon for understanding animal evolution. These gelatinous creatures are clearly distinct from cnidarian medusae (i.e., jellyfish).

New symbiotic association in marine annelids: ectoparasites of comb jellies

Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2020
AbstractA new genus of ectoparasitic marine annelids living on ctenophores, Ctenophoricola gen. nov., is described and its feeding behaviour, reproduction and developmental stages are discussed. Its unusual morphology challenged its placement within the known marine families.

Hydroids, Sea Anemones, Jellyfish, and Comb Jellies

1995
Abstract The Cnidaria, formerly combined with the Ctenophora (p. 133) and known as Coelenterata, are most obviously characterized by their radial, or sometimes more strictly biradial, symmetry. The basic structure is sac-like with a single terminal opening, the mouth, which also functions as an anus. The internal space is the coelenteron

Combined Effects of Hypoxia and Crude Oil on the Invasive Comb Jelly Mnemiopsis leidyi

Environmental Science & Technology
Coastal ecosystems are subject to multiple anthropogenic stressors, including hypoxia and crude oil pollution. This study examines the individual and combined effects of varying oxygen levels (1%, 10%, and 100% O2 sat.) and crude oil (1 μL L-1) on the invasive comb jelly Mnemiopsis leidyi, focusing on key life history traits (e.g., reproduction and ...

Spreading and reproduction limitations of the American comb jelly Mnemiopsis leidyi in the Baltic Sea

2010
No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Based on the information on salinity and temperature needed for survival and reproduction, areas within the Baltic Sea have been identified where the American comb jelly (Mnemiopsis leidyi) could potentially survive and reproduce.
