Back with a bang – an unexpected massive bloom of Cassiopea andromeda (Forskaal, 1775) in the Maltese Islands, nine years after its first appearance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The upside-down jellyfish—Cassiopea andromeda (Forsskål, 1775)—is considered an established alien within the eastern Mediterranean Sea, but the species exhibits a highly sporadic occurrence further west within the basin.

A Network Approach to White Band Disease Challenged Staghorn Coral Acropora cervicornis microRNAs and Their Targets

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 4, April 2025.
Our study looks at the association between microRNA expression and disease resistance in Caribbean staghorn corals infected with White Band Disease. We find three microRNAs differentially expressed due to disease resistance with putative targets involved in innate immunity.

Phosphatic Biomineralization in Scyphozoa (Cnidaria): A Review

open access: yesMinerals, 2022
Phosphatic biomineralization is unknown in modern species of Scyphozoa (Cnidaria). However, some extinct groups of Scyphozoa, such as conulariids and Sphenothallus, were capable of secreting phosphatic exoskeletons. Both conulariids and Sphenothallus used apatite to improve the mechanical properties of their skeletons, which offered better protection ...

日本におけるAtorella vanhoeffeni(刺胞動物門,鉢虫綱,カンムリクラゲ目)の広範囲な地理的分布 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Medusae of a rare, small scyphomedusa, Atorella vanhoeffeni Bigelow, 1909 (Cnidaria, Scyphozoa, Coronatae), were collected and/or photographed at three sites in Japan: Notojima, Ishikawa Prefecture, in the Sea of Japan; Osezaki, Shizuoka Prefecture, on ...

Comparative muscle development of scyphozoan jellyfish with simple and complex life cycles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
International audienceBackground : Simple life cycles arise from complex life cycles when one or more developmental stages are lost. This raises a fundamental question - how can an intermediate stage, such as a larva, be removed, and development still ...

A Morphospace Exploration Using a General Model of Development Reveals a Basic Set of Morphologies for Early Animal Development and Evolution

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, Volume 344, Issue 2, Page 45-58, March 2025.
This work used the model EmbryoMaker to explore the most basic set of morphologies that can be produced from spherical initial conditions by activating cell properties and behaviors in simple genetic territories. We found five possible morphogenetic transformations: invagination, evagination, elongation, condensation and anisotropic growth.

Haemolytic activity and characterization of nematocyst venom from Pelagia noctiluca (Cnidaria: Scyphozoa) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We investigated the haemolytic capacity of the crude venom extracted from isolated nematocysts of Pelagia noctiluca (Cnidaria: Scyphozoa), and evidenced the proteic fractions responsible for this activity.

Global Variation in Zooplankton Niche Divergence Across Ocean Basins

open access: yesEcology Letters, Volume 28, Issue 2, February 2025.
We explored the evidence of niche divergence between population for marine zooplankton globally. We found 44% of all population comparisons show niche divergence. Niche divergence varied across temperature and bathymetry gradients for copepods. ABSTRACT Modelling responses to climate change assumes zooplankton populations remain similar over time with ...
