Towards understanding the phylogenetic history of Hydrozoa: Hypothesis testing with 18S gene sequence data

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2000
Although systematic treatments of Hydrozoa have been notoriously difficult, a great deal of useful information on morphologies and life histories has steadily accumulated. From the assimilation of this information, numerous hypotheses of the phylogenetic

Description of Jubanyella plemmyris gen. nov. et sp. nov. (Cnidaria: Hydrozoa: Narcomedusae) from a specimen stranded off Jubany Antarctic station, with a new diagnosis for the family Aeginidae [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Plankton Research, 2006
5 pages, 3 figures Jubanyella plemmyris, a new genus and species of aeginid narcomedusan, is described from one complete specimen stranded on Potter Cove beach, King George Island, Southern Ocean. The new genus and species is proposed in order to accommodate the specimen described in the family Aeginidae; Jubanyella gen. nov. contains undivided stomach

Estructura poblacional del zooplancton gelatinoso en el mar ecuatoriano

open access: yesRevista Científica de Ciencias Naturales y Ambientales, 2019
El presente estudio analiza la composición y distribución del zooplancton gelatinoso en el mar ecuatoriano desde Julio 2017 hasta Abril 2018. Se dividió el perfil costero en dos zonas: la ZI abarcó la provincia de Esmeraldas hasta la parte norte de la ...

The perils of online biogeographic databases: a case study with the ‘monospecific’ genus Aegina (Cnidaria, Hydrozoa, Narcomedusae) [PDF]

open access: yesMarine Biology Research, 2017
ABSTRACTOnline biogeographic databases are increasingly being used as data sources for scientific papers and reports, for example, to characterize global patterns and predictors of marine biodiversity and to identify areas of ecological significance in the open oceans and deep seas.

Fluorescence patterns and diversity of hydrozoans from Bocas del Toro, Panama

open access: yesCiencias Marinas
Many metazoans contain molecules capable of fluorescence, the absorption and re-emission of light. Since the anatomical distribution, or patterning, of these molecules is variable across taxa, patterns of fluorescence may serve as a powerful diagnostic ...

Spatial Distribution of Medusa Cunina octonaria and Frequency of Parasitic Association with Liriope tetraphylla (Cnidaria: Hydrozoa: Trachylina) in Temperate Southwestern Atlantic Waters. [PDF]

open access: yesZool Stud, 2020
This study examined the spatial distribution of the medusae phase of Cunina octonaria (Narcomedusae) in temperate Southwestern Atlantic waters using a total of 3,288 zooplankton lots collected along the Uruguayan and Argentine waters (34-56°S), which ...

Check List of Iran marine Cnidarians (Animalia, Cnidaria) [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Animal Biosystematics, 2020
There is an urgent need for quality control of marine species data published in domestic journals and open access databases. We extracted 149 accepted Cnidarian species after the quality control process on available published records on the OBIS data ...

Three major mesoplanktonic communities resolved by in situ imaging in the upper 500 m of the global ocean

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 32, Issue 11, Page 1991-2005, November 2023., 2023
Abstract Aim The distribution of mesoplankton communities has been poorly studied at global scale, especially from in situ instruments. This study aims to (1) describe the global distribution of mesoplankton communities in relation to their environment and (2) assess the ability of various environmental‐based ocean regionalizations to explain the ...

Integrating siphonophores into marine food‐web ecology

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 7, Issue 2, Page 81-95, April 2022., 2022
Abstract Siphonophores are a clade of understudied colonial hydrozoans (Cnidaria) that are abundant predators in oceanic ecosystems, with species present across the water column. We (1) synthesize current knowledge about siphonophore trophic ecology and predator–prey interactions, (2) analyze siphonophore‐prey networks to compare food‐web topology ...

Deep pelagic food web structure as revealed by in situ feeding observations. [PDF]

open access: yesProc Biol Sci, 2017
Food web linkages, or the feeding relationships between species inhabiting a shared ecosystem, are an ecological lens through which ecosystem structure and function can be assessed, and thus are fundamental to informing sustainable resource ...
