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 ...

Carybdea alata auct. (Cubozoa): rediscovery of the Alatina grandis type [PDF]
Zootaxa, 2010 Numerous nominal species have been considered synonymous with Carybdea alata Reynaud, 1830 (cf. Gershwin 2005). A recent revision concluded that several of the species collectively referred to as C. alata are valid and indeed separate species (Gershwin 2005; but see also Bentlage et al. 2010). Additionally, these species (including C. alata) were moved

Eyes in Staurozoa (Cnidaria): a review [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 The presence of dark pigment spots associated with primary tentacles (or structures derived from them, i.e., rhopalioids) in Staurozoa was recently overlooked in a study on the evolution of cnidarian eyes (defined as a “region made of photoreceptor cells

Latin American Journal of Aquatic Research, 2013 Preserved specimens make it difficult to study nematocysts. We tested an hydration protocol on ethanol preserved tentacles of Chiropsalmus quadrumanus (Cubomedusae) during a period of ten days, and quantified the success of retrieval of information ...

Heated Debates: Hot-Water Immersion or Ice Packs as First Aid for Cnidarian Envenomations?
Toxins, 2016 Cnidarian envenomations are an important public health problem, responsible for more deaths than shark attacks annually. For this reason, optimization of first-aid care is essential.
