Sometimes though, for convenience, scientists lump medusae and ctenophores together and call them both "jellyfish", when the scientists are trying to make a point about these two groups of unrelated organisms that are ecologically very similar and often found in the same places (see also the paragraph just above this one). Curr. Overall, 84 bacteria were . but which has links to various images of ctenophores on the web to produce eggs or sperm, ctenophores seem to produce small numbers countries) as they did in the Black Sea. Mnemiopsis leidyi had moved from the Black Sea to the Turkish coast of the eastern Mediterranean by the mid-1990s, and by the late-2000s, made it to the North Sea and the Baltic Sea, where its populations are growing and it seems to be well-adapted.

We provide recommendations for general husbandry to close the life cycle of Mnemiopsis in the laboratory, including feeding requirements, light-induced spawning, collection of embryos and rearing of juveniles to adults. The cilia in each row are Also known as a comb jelly, because they have rows of cilia that look like the teeth of a comb. Nature 531, 637641 (2016).
