First description of the life cycle of the jellyfish Rhizostoma luteum (Scyphozoa: Rhizostomeae)

open access: goldPLOS ONE, 2018
Jellyfish blooms are a significant environmental problem that is increasing and may be influenced by anthropocentric practices such as overfishing, pollution, eutrophication, translocation, climate change, and ocean acidification. Many jellyfish have unknown life cycles leading to these blooms.

Asexual reproduction strategies and blooming potential in Scyphozoa [PDF]

open access: yesMarine Ecology Progress Series, 2014
Scyphistomae show different modes of propagation, occasionally allowing the sudden release of great numbers of medusae through strobilation leading to so-called jellyfish blooms. Accordingly, factors regulating asexual reproduction strategies will control scyphistoma density, which, in turn, may influence blooming potential.

Asexual reproduction strategies in the moon jellyfish Aurelia (Cnidaria: Scyphozoa)

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
The genus Aurelia is one of the major contributors to jellyfish blooms in coastal waters, possibly due to its adaptive reproduction strategies. Different Aurelia lineages have adapted their reproduction modes to varying environmental conditions in their ...

Not all jellyfish are equal: isotopic evidence for inter- and intraspecific variation in jellyfish trophic ecology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Jellyfish are highly topical within studies of pelagic food-webs and there is a growing realisation that their role is more complex than once thought.

Understanding Cassiopea andromeda (Scyphozoa) Invasiveness in Different Habitats: A Multiple Biomarker Comparison

open access: yesWater, 2023
A dual nutrition mode (i.e., mixotrophy) can be advantageous for alien species in a new environment. In Cearà (Brazil), the symbiotic jellyfish Cassiopea andromeda is rapidly spreading under diverse environmental conditions across natural and human ...

Compartments in Scyphozoa

open access: yesThe International Journal of Developmental Biology, 2007
Polyps of Scyphozoa have a cup-shaped body. At one end is the mouth opening surrounded by tentacles, at the other end is an attachment disc. The body wall consists of two tissue layers, the ectoderm and the endoderm, which are separated by an extracellular matrix, the mesoglea.

A new subfamily of ulmarid scyphomedusae, the Santjordiinae, with a description of Santjordia pagesi gen. et sp. nov. (Cnidaria: Scyphozoa: Discomedusae: Semaeostomeae: Ulmaridae) from the Sumisu Caldera, Ogasawara Islands, Japan.

open access: yesZootaxa, 2023
An undescribed species of ulmarid medusa was observed in situ and captured at 812 m depth within the Sumisu Caldera, Ogasawara Islands, Japan. Morphological and molecular evidence points to it being distinct from other ulmarid medusae and a new species ...

Medusae and ctenophores from the Bahia Blanca Estuary and neighboring inner shelf (Southwest Atlantic Ocean, Argentina) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
An updated checklist of medusae and ctenophores is presented for the first time for the area comprised by the Bahía Blanca Estuary, the adjacent shelf El Rincón and Monte Hermoso beach, on the southwest coast of Buenos Aires province (Argentina).

Transgenerational effects influence acclimation to varying temperatures in Aurelia aurita polyps (Cnidaria: Scyphozoa)

open access: yesHydrobiologia, 2023
Temperature is one of the most important drivers to affect marine ectotherms in the context of anthropogenic climate change modifying seasonal cycles in temperate regions.

Sexual reproduction of Nausithoe aurea (Scyphozoa, Coronatae). Gametogenesis, egg release, embryonic development, and gastrulation

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2001
The structure of the ovaries and testes of Nausithoe aurea, reared in the laboratory, is described to update the knowledge of coronate scyphomedusae gametogenesis and early development. The testis is similar to those of other scyphozoans.
