Description of Aurelia pseudosolida sp. nov. (Scyphozoa, Ulmaridae) from the Adriatic Sea
Until 2021, the genus Aurelia contained eleven described species (WoRMS, 2020), with many genetic species still awaiting a formal description. In 2021, ten new species of Aurelia were described almost solely from genetic data in a novel attempt to use ...

Deepwater Sharks at Their Northern Limits—Distribution, Diet and Trophic Relations
ABSTRACT Deepwater areas and continental slope regions south and west off Iceland are characterized by a relatively high species diversity and abundance of sharks that likely play a critical ecological role within this ecosystem. The study investigates trophic ecology of the sharks employing stomach content analysis and stable isotope analysis of ...

Reproductive and bloom patterns of Pelagia noctiluca in the Strait of Messina, Italy [PDF]
Investigations on sexual reproduction of jellyfish are essential to understanding mechanisms and patterns of outbreaks formation. Pelagia noctiluca (Forskål, 1775) (Scyphozoa) is known as the predominant jellyfish species with direct development in ...

ABSTRACT In deep‐pelagic ecosystems, the trophic ecology of micronektonic species (such as fish, jellyfish, krill, shrimps, and cephalopods) is largely overlooked, with most research focusing almost exclusively on fish. However, like fish, invertebrate organisms play key roles in food webs, both as consumers and as predators.

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 ...

To Pee, or Not to Pee:A Review on Envenomation and Treatment in European Jellyfish Species [PDF]
There is a growing cause for concern on envenoming European species because of jellyfish blooms, climate change and globalization displacing species. Treatment of envenomation involves the prevention of further nematocyst release and relieving local and ...

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.
