Journal ArticleDOI

Medusozoan Phylogeny and Character Evolution Clarified by New Large and Small Subunit rDNA Data and an Assessment of the Utility of Phylogenetic Mixture Models

TL;DR: A newly compiled data set of nearly complete sequences of the large subunit of the nuclear ribosome (LSU or 28S) sampled from 31 diverse medusozoans greatly clarifies the phylogenetic history of Cnidaria.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cladistic analysis of Medusozoa and cnidarian evolution

TL;DR: A cladistic analysis of 87 morphological and life history characters of medusozoan cnidarians, rooted with Anthozoa, results in the phylogenetic hypothesis (Anthozoa (Hydrozoa (Scyphozoa) (StaurozoA, Cubozoa))) and a phylogenetic classification of Medusozoa that is consistent with phylogenetic hypotheses based on cladistic results, as well as those derived from 18S analyses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exceptionally Preserved Jellyfishes from the Middle Cambrian

TL;DR: These are the first described Cambrian jellyfish fossils to display exquisite preservation of soft part anatomy including detailed features of structures interpreted as trailing tentacles and subumbrellar and exumbarrellar surfaces.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reassessment of the phylogenetic position of conulariids (?Ediacaran‐Triassic) within the subphylum medusozoa (phylum cnidaria)

TL;DR: Conulariids are the sister group of the scyphozoan order Coronatae rather than Stauromedusae, which is revealed as the earliest diverging lineage of Medusozoa, and this new hypothesis implies several different sequences of character evolution within Cnidaria.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phylogenetics of Hydroidolina (Hydrozoa: Cnidaria)

TL;DR: Preliminary phylogenetic analyses on 97 hydroidolinan taxa show support for four separate filiferan clades and two separate capitate clades within Anthoathecata, but lack any substantive support for discerning relationships between these eight distinct hydroidolina clades.
