Drivers behind the diversity and distribution of a widespread midwater narcomedusa
Limnology and Oceanography, 2023 AbstractNarcomedusae play a key role as top‐down regulators in the midwater, the largest and most understudied biome on Earth. Here, we used ecological niche modeling in three‐dimensions (3D), ecomorphology, and phylogeny, to answer evolutionary and ecological questions about the widespread narcomedusan genus Solmissus.

New records of Pegantha spp. (Hydrozoa: Narcomedusae) off Northern Brazil
Papéis Avulsos de Zoologia, 2018 Specimens of Pegantha laevis H.B. Bigelow, 1909 and Pegantha triloba Haeckel, 1879 were found in oceanic waters off the northern Brazilian coast. The former species is clearly distinct due to the thickness and shape of peripheral channels, while the ...

Piggybacking pycnogonids and parasitic narcomedusae on Pandea rubra (Anthomedusae, Pandeidae)
Plankton and Benthos Research, 2007 Associations between pycnogonids and the mesopelagic anthomedusan Pandea rubra are reported from two in situ video footage records off the Pacific coast of northern Japan, and from a plankton sample collected in the Weddell Sea (one juvenile of the pycnogonid Pallenopsis (Bathypallenopsis) tritonis).

Morphology and distribution of a deep-water Narcomedusa (Solmarisidae) from the northeast Pacific
Scientia Marina, 2000 Specimens of Solmaris sp. (Solmarisidae, Narcomedusae) with only four tentacles were collected in the northeast Pacific. The majority were collected in Canadian Pacific waters by Tucker trawl from stations outside the 500-m contour off the west coast of ...

, 2021 Order Narcomedusae Remarks: The families of the Narcomedusae have recently been reorganized by Lindsay et al. (2017) using DNA data. Bentlage et al. (2018) added more sequences. The 16S sequences of these studies and the ones from the present study were combined to get a maximum likelihood tree (Fig. 48).

Cnidarian Parasites on Solmissus incisa, a Narcomedusa
Scientia Marina, 2000 A narcomedusa, Solmissus incisa, was collected off central California in the Monterey Submarine Canyon at 230 m in October 1996. The medusa was viewed and collected from the RV Point Lobos using the remotely operated vehicle (ROV) Ventana.

Solution to the phylogenetic enigma of Tetraplatia , a worm-shaped cnidarian [PDF]
Biology Letters, 2006 Tetraplatia is a genus containing two species of pelagic cnidarians of curious morphology. Their vermiform shape and four swimming flaps are difficult to relate to the features of other cnidarians, thus obscuring their phylogenetic affinities.

Environmental DNA surveys detect distinct metazoan communities across abyssal plains and seamounts in the western Clarion Clipperton Zone. [PDF]
Mol Ecol, 2020 Abstract The deep seafloor serves as a reservoir of biodiversity in the global ocean, with >80% of invertebrates at abyssal depths still undescribed. These diverse and remote deep‐sea communities are critically under‐sampled and increasingly threatened by anthropogenic impacts, including future polymetallic nodule mining.

Diversity and life-cycle analysis of Pacific Ocean zooplankton by videomicroscopy and DNA barcoding: Hydrozoa. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2019 Most, but not all cnidarian species in the class Hydrozoa have a life cycle in which a colonial, asexually reproducing hydroid phase alternates with a free-swimming, sexually reproducing medusa phase. They are not well known, in part because many of them
