Nectophore coordination and kinematics by physonect siphonophores

S. Strock, J. H. Costello, J. Daniels, K. Katija, S. Colin

This study examines the kinematics and coordination of nectophores in physonect siphonophores, finding metachronal coordination on the same side of the nectosomal axis and similar pulsing frequencies on opposite sides.
