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.

A sedimentary DNA record of the Atacama Trench reveals biodiversity changes in the most productive marine ecosystem

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 30, Issue 7, July 2024.
Using DNA deposited in deep‐sea sediments, we examine how marine biodiversity has changed over the last 150 years in Chilean waters. We find a unique period aligning with high fishing and extreme climatic events that reduces overall diversity. Furthermore, we find an effect of sea surface temperature and El Nino events over diversity, providing an idea

Pan‐Arctic distribution modeling reveals climate‐change‐driven poleward shifts of major gelatinous zooplankton species

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 69, Issue 6, Page 1316-1334, June 2024.
Abstract Anthropogenic activities, including climate change, are hypothesized to cause increases in gelatinous zooplankton population sizes and blooms. In the most rapidly changing ecosystem, the Arctic Ocean, this hypothesis has not yet been verified, and gelatinous zooplankton is commonly excluded from large‐scale modeling studies. Our modeling study

First record of Cassiopea andromeda (Scyphozoa : Rhizostomeae : Cassiopeidae) from the Central Mediterranean Sea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The occurrence of the scyphozoan Cassiopea andromeda is reported from the Maltese Islands, where a sizable aggregation was found in Marsamxett Harbour. This is the first record of this circumtropical species from the central Mediterranean Sea, hitherto ...

Detecting the invisible through DNA metabarcoding: The role of gelatinous taxa in the diet of two demersal Antarctic key stone fish species (Notothenioidei)

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 6, Issue 3, May–June 2024.
Gelatinous zooplankton (GZP) are considered climate change winners, and particularly in the Southern Ocean, a significant shift from a krill‐based to a salp‐based ecosystem has undergone. In this study, we want to validate the paradigm shift from GZP being considered as “survival food” to a “regular” prey item for two demersal fish species (Notothenia ...

Investigating pelagic biodiversity and gelatinous zooplankton communities in the rapidly changing European Arctic: An eDNA metabarcoding survey

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 6, Issue 3, May–June 2024.
In this study, we implement eDNA metabarcoding to investigate patterns of pelagic diversity in the European Arctic. We successfully detected a wide range of taxa belonging to the marine metazoan and gelatinous zooplankton communities. We demonstrate vertical patterns of diversity as well as relationships between taxa and water mass indicators such as ...

To Pee, or Not to Pee:A Review on Envenomation and Treatment in European Jellyfish Species [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
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 ...

Scientific history, biogeography, and biological traits predict presence of cryptic or overlooked species

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 99, Issue 2, Page 546-561, April 2024.
ABSTRACT Genetic data show that many nominal species are composed of more than one biological species, and thus contain cryptic species in the broad sense (including overlooked species). When ignored, cryptic species generate confusion which, beyond biodiversity or vulnerability underestimation, blurs our understanding of ecological and evolutionary ...
