predominantly studied to understand its interaction with the endosymbiotic dinoflagellate …

The perception that anthropogenic stressors cause jellyfish blooms is widespread within the
scientific literature and media but robust evidence in support of these claims appears scarce …

The excess input of nutrients that triggers eutrophication processes is one of the main
destabilizing factors of coastal ecosystems, being coastal lagoons prone to suffer these …

The uprising interest in gelatinous zooplankton populations must cope with a lack of robust
time series of direct abundance observations in most of the ecosystems because of the …

Jellyfish (primarily scyphomedusae) fisheries have a long history in Asia, where jellyfish
have been caught and processed as food for centuries. More recently, jellyfish fisheries …

Species richness in the seas has been underestimated due to the combined challenges
presented by the taxonomic impediment, delimitation of species, preponderance of cryptic …

Interest on jellyfish research has significantly increased over the last two decades, mostly
driven by the potential benefits of their high‐end uses. Recent efforts have been put forward …

The negative effects of scyphozoan jellyfish blooms on ecosystems and economy are linked
to planula survival, settlement success and subsequent polyp metamorphosis. A particular …

Knowledge of the reproductive strategy is a key prerequisite to predict population dynamics
and potential invasiveness of both native and non-indigenous outbreak-forming species. In …

Many marine organisms form photosymbioses with zooxanthellae, but some, such as the
medusozoans, are less well known. Here, we summarize the current knowledge on the …
