Environmental control of asexual reproduction and somatic growth of Aurelia spp. (Cnidaria, Scyphozoa) polyps from the Adriatic Sea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Polyps of two moon jellyfish species, Aurelia coerulea and A. relicta, from two Adriatic Sea coastal habitats were incubated under multiple combinations of temperature (14, 21°C), salinity (24, 37 ppt) and food regime (9.3, 18.6, 27.9 μg C ind−1 week−1 ...

Passive Energy Recapture in Jellyfish Contributes to Propulsive Advantage over other Metazoans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Gelatinous zooplankton populations are well known for their ability to take over perturbed ecosystems. The ability of these animals to outcompete and functionally replace fish that exhibit an effective visual predatory mode is counterintuitive because ...

Roaming the Seas—Assessing Marine Invertebrate Biodiversity Along Salinity Gradients With Zooplankton and eDNA Metabarcoding

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 6, Issue 6, November–December 2024.
We assessed eDNA metabarcoding from surface water, bottom water, and sediment as well as zooplankton metabarcoding for their applicability to identify the known decline in invertebrate diversity along salinity gradients. All approaches identified regional communities, but with varying explanatory power, with none of these methods being able to ...

Diving in Two Marine Lakes in Croatia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We describe the diving methods used for in-situ observations of the scyphozoan medusa, Aurelia sp., in two marine lakes on the island of Mljet, Croatia. Both lakes have a strong pycnocline at approximately 15 m.

Swimming ability of the Carybdea marsupialis (Cnidaria: Cubozoa: Carybdeidae): implications for its spatial distribution

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, Volume 324, Issue 1, Page 1-10, September 2024.
In this paper we analyzed the swimming speed, effective velocity, effective displacement index (EDI) and proficiency of juvenile to adult specimens (ranging from 1.1 to 36 mm of the diagonal bell width) of the box jellyfish Carybdea marsupialis. Abstract Although usually considered part of the plankton, cubozoans are strong swimmers.

Is global ocean sprawl a cause of jellyfish blooms? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Jellyfish (Cnidaria, Scyphozoa) blooms appear to be increasing in both intensity and frequency in many coastal areas worldwide, due to multiple hypothesized anthropogenic stressors.

Trophic ecology of carnivorous zooplankton in the Benguela [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Carnivorous zooplankton in the Benguela system have tended to be ignored by all but early taxonomists and a handful of recent researchers. An attempt is made here to address the importance of carnivores in this system but, because the database is poor ...
