Atlas of the neuromuscular system in the Trachymedusa Aglantha digitale : Insights from the advanced hydrozoan [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Comparative Neurology, 2019
Abstract Cnidaria is the sister taxon to bilaterian animals, and therefore, represents a key reference lineage to understand early origins and evolution of the neural systems. The hydromedusa Aglantha digitale is arguably the best electrophysiologically studied jellyfish ...

A space‐for‐time framework for forecasting the effects of ocean stratification on zooplankton vertical habitat use and trait composition

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 68, Issue 12, Page 2688-2702, December 2023., 2023
Abstract The effects of environmental change on zooplankton communities, and more broadly, pelagic ecosystems are difficult to predict due to the high diversity of ecological strategies and complex interspecific interactions within the zooplankton. Trait‐based approaches can define zooplankton functional groups with distinct responses to environmental ...

Integrating siphonophores into marine food‐web ecology

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 7, Issue 2, Page 81-95, April 2022., 2022
Abstract Siphonophores are a clade of understudied colonial hydrozoans (Cnidaria) that are abundant predators in oceanic ecosystems, with species present across the water column. We (1) synthesize current knowledge about siphonophore trophic ecology and predator–prey interactions, (2) analyze siphonophore‐prey networks to compare food‐web topology ...

“Little Red Jellies” in Monterey Bay, California (Cnidaria: Hydrozoa: Trachymedusae: Rhopalonematidae)

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2020
Several species of small, red, deep-sea Trachymedusae have been described and then re-described over the past 20 years, leading to some confusion in the scientific literature.

The Ultrastructure of the Radial Neuromuscular System of the Jellyfish Liriope tetraphylla (Hydrozoa, Trachymedusae): Implications in Crumpling Behavior [PDF]

open access: yesThe Biological Bulletin, 1991
The ultrastructure of the radial neuromuscular system of the trachymedusa Liriope tetraphylla was examined to determine the morphological substrate underlying crumpling behavior--the folding of the margin into the subumbrellar cavity by radial muscle contraction. These contractions are produced by the four smooth muscle bands that run the length of the

Towards understanding the phylogenetic history of Hydrozoa: Hypothesis testing with 18S gene sequence data

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2000
Although systematic treatments of Hydrozoa have been notoriously difficult, a great deal of useful information on morphologies and life histories has steadily accumulated. From the assimilation of this information, numerous hypotheses of the phylogenetic

On a New Deep-Water Trachymedusa [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom, 1961
Anew species of deep-water txachymedusa from the North Atlantic is described and named Colobonema apicatum. Most specimens occurred deeper than 1500 m.

Origin and biogeography of the deep-water Mediterranean Hydromedusae including the description of two new species collected in submarine canyons of Northwestern Mediterranean

open access: yesScientia Marina, 1998
Two new species of hydromedusae (Foersteria antoniae and Cunina simplex) are described from plankton collected in sediment traps placed in the Lacaze-Duthiers Submarine Canyon and along Banyuls-sur-Mer coast (northwestern Mediterranean).
