Nematocyst distribution corresponds to prey capture location in hydromedusae with different predation modes

Creator:

Corrales-Ugalde, Marco, Colin, Sean P., and Sutherland, Kelly R.

Abstract:

Understanding the factors that control predation in pelagic communities can inform predictions of community structure in marine ecosystems. Ubiquitous and selective predators such as cnidarian hydromedusae rely on their nematocysts to capture and retain prey but it is not clear how the density and spatial distribution of these cells relate...
