Microanatomy of the cubopolyp,Tripedalia cystophora (Class Cubozoa) [PDF]

Helgoländer Wissenschaftliche Meeresuntersuchungen, 1978
The microanatomy of a cubopolyp (polypoid stage of Cubomedusae) is described for the first time. The 0.5–1.0 mm long polyp ofTripedialia cystophora has an oral cone with special lip cells at the mouth. Next is a baggy calyx occasionally followed by a slender stalk. The basal region is surrounded by a thin periderm.

Apoptotic gene loss in Cnidaria is associated with transition to parasitism

Scientific Reports, 2023
The phylum Cnidaria consists of several morphologically diverse classes including Anthozoa, Cubozoa, Hydrozoa, Polypodiozoa, Scyphozoa, Staurozoa, and Myxozoa.

Prominent system of RFamide immunoreactive neurons in the rhopalia of box jellyfish (cnidaria: Cubozoa) [PDF]

Journal of Comparative Neurology, 2009
AbstractThe four visual sensory structures of a cubomedusa, the rhopalia, display a surprisingly elaborate organization by containing two lens eyes and four bilaterally paired pigment cup eyes. Peptides containing the peptide sequence Arg‐Phe‐NH2 (RFamide) occur in close association with visual structures of cnidarians, including the rhopalia and ...

Elucidation of Medusozoan (Jellyfish) Venom Constituent Activities Using Constellation Pharmacology

Toxins
Within the phylum Cnidaria, sea anemones (class Anthozoa) express a rich diversity of ion-channel peptide modulators with biomedical applications, but corollary discoveries from jellyfish (subphylum Medusozoa) are lacking.

De novo transcriptome assembly of the cubomedusa Tripedalia cystophora, including the analysis of a set of genes involved in peptidergic neurotransmission

BMC Genomics, 2019
Background The phyla Cnidaria, Placozoa, Ctenophora, and Porifera emerged before the split of proto- and deuterostome animals, about 600 million years ago.

Phylogenomic Analyses Support Traditional Relationships within Cnidaria. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Cnidaria, the sister group to Bilateria, is a highly diverse group of animals in terms of morphology, lifecycles, ecology, and development. How this diversity originated and evolved is not well understood because phylogenetic relationships among major ...

Range expansion of two box jellyfish (Cnidaria, Cubozoa) in southern Gulf of Mexico [PDF]

Check List, 2019
We report range extensions of Chiropsalmus quadrumanus (Müller, 1859) and Tripedalia cystophora Conant, 1897 to 2 coastal lagoons in the southern Gulf of Mexico. These new records are the first for these species in Yucatán and Mexico.

Behavioural and oceanographic isolation of an island-based jellyfish (Copula sivickisi, Class Cubozoa) population

Scientific Reports, 2021
Cubozoan jellyfish are classified as plankton despite the strong swimming and orientation abilities of cubomedusae. How these capabilities could affect cubozoan population structures is poorly understood.
