Two new species of deep-water corallimorpharia (cnidaria: anthozoa from the Northeast Pacific, Corallimorphus denhartogi and C. pilatus (1).
; Abstract: Corallimorpharia is currently considered an order of hexacorallian anthozoans. Being skeletonless, its members are sometimes referred to as sea anemones, but they are morphologically more similar to members of Scleractinia than to members of Actiniaria. We describe two new species of

Molecular Evidence for Cryptic Species of Aurelia aurita (Cnidaria, Scyphozoa).(Statistical Data Included)
; MICHAEL N. DAWSON [12 DAVID K. JACOBS [1] Morphological taxonomy suggests that marine faunas are species poor compared to terrestrial and freshwater faunas (1). This dichotomy has been attributed to the unique potential of marine plankters for distant dispersal across homogenous oceans with few

Flicker light effects on photosynthesis of symbiotic algae in the reef-building coral Acropora digitifera (Cnidaria: Anthozoa: scleractinia) (1).(Report)
; Abstract: Reef-building corals inhabit a variety of aquatic habitats with a range of light conditions. Because the coral host depends on photosynthetic products assimilated from endosymbiotic algae, reef-building corals have to cope with irradiance fluctuations on instantaneous to seasonal time

Life cycle of Chrysaora fuscescens (Cnidaria: Scyphozoa) and a key to sympatric ephyrae (1).
; Abstract: The life cycle of the Northeast Pacific sea nettle, Chrysaora fuscescens Brandt, 1835, is described from gametes to the juvenile medusa stage. In vitro techniques were used to fertilize eggs from field-collected medusae. Ciliated planula larvae swam, settled, and metamorphosed into
