Phylogenetic analysis of higher-level relationships within Hydroidolina (Cnidaria: Hydrozoa) using mitochondrial genome data and insight into their mitochondrial transcription [PDF]
PeerJ, 2015 Hydrozoans display the most morphological diversity within the phylum Cnidaria. While recent molecular studies have provided some insights into their evolutionary history, sister group relationships remain mostly unresolved, particularly at mid-taxonomic

Coincident Mass Occurrence of Gelatinous Zooplankton in Northern Norway
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2018 In autumn 2015, several sources reported observations of large amounts of gelatinous material in a large north Norwegian fjord system, either caught when trawling for other organisms or fouling fishing gear.

The influence of the Atlantic and regional climate variability on the long-term changes in gelatinous carnivore populations in the northwestern Mediterranean [PDF]
, 2008 We investigated potential connections between climate and the population size of gelatinous carnivores in the northwestern Mediterranean. The interannual variability of large- and meso-scale climate factors was related to gelatinous carnivore dynamics by

Species of Lensia (Cnidaria: Hydrozoa: Siphonophorae) from southeastern Brazilian waters
Zoologia (Curitiba)The siphonophores of the Brazilian coast are poorly studied, despite their abundance and ecological importance. Lensia is the most diverse genus within Siphonophora, with twenty-six valid species.

Occurrence of the driftfish Nomeus gronovii (Scombriformes: Stromateoidei: Nomeidae) in the sandy beach surf zone of southern Brazil [PDF]
Zoologia (Curitiba)We record a single juvenile specimen of a driftfish, Nomeus gronovii (Gmelin, 1789), in a shallow surf zone in the southern Brazilian waters. This is the southernmost record of N. gronovii on the South Atlantic.

Morphological diversity of medusan lineages constrained by animal–fluid interactions [PDF]
, 2007 Cnidarian medusae, commonly known as jellyfish, represent the earliest known animal taxa to achieve locomotion using muscle power. Propulsion by medusae requires the force of bell contraction to generate forward thrust.
