Delayed papular dermatitis after a jellyfish sting
Dermatology ReportsDear Editor, Jellyfish stings are among the most common marine envenomations worldwide, particularly in coastal tourist regions. They typically cause immediate pain, erythema, and linear urticarial wheals. Although acute effects are well characterized,

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2019 Marine sponges thrive in benthic environments despite intense spatial competition and predator pressure. The sessile filter-feeders usually compensate their lack of physical defense and behavioral escape by a high level of bioactivity.

Hydra tropomyosin TROP1 is expressed in head-specific epithelial cells and is a major component of the cytoskeletal structure that anchors nematocytes [PDF]
, 1994 A cDNA clone encoding a 253 amino acid tropomyosin was isolated from Hydra in a differential screen for headspecific genes. The Hydra tropomyosin gene, designated trop1, is a single copy gene, lacks introns and is strongly expressed in tentacle-specific ...

Journal of Fish Biology, Volume 107, Issue 6, Page 2166-2172, December 2025.Abstract We formally describe the association of fishes and anthozoans in epipelagic waters, extending this relationship to beyond the benthos. In situ observations and photographs of Aluterus schoepfii, Ariomma regulus, Caranx cf. latus and Brama spp.

Prey Capture Ecology of the Cubozoan Carukia barnesi.
PLoS ONE, 2015 Adult Carukia barnesi medusae feed predominantly on larval fish; however, their mode of prey capture seems more complex than previously described. Our findings revealed that during light conditions, this species extends its tentacles and 'twitches' them ...

Diel activity correlates with colour pattern morphology of heterobranch sea slugs
Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 94, Issue 6, Page 1165-1179, June 2025.The authors show that daytime activity fundamentally shapes the appearance of prey animals to potential predators and that colour pattern phenotypes likely associated with visual signalling are predominantly found in diurnal species of sea slugs. This study showcases novel methodology combining comparative phylogenetic analyses, animal vision modelling,

The Chemical Composition of Sea Nettle Nematocysts
Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1969 Interest in the stinging apparatus of the sea nettle (Chrysaora quinquecirrha) has been stimulated recently because of the economic problem produced by this organism. Resort activity is severely curtailed during the summer season when the nettle is prevalent.
