Can an original be found? Mitochondrial species identity does not predict nuclear genome similarity in the photosymbiotic jellyfish Cassiopea andromeda and C. xamachana

The study finds that mitochondrial species identity in Cassiopea jellyfish does not predict nuclear genome similarity, suggesting hybridization and geographic mixing rather than strict species boundaries.

Notes on the diet and size of Cassiopea

The paper examines diet and size variation in Cassiopea medusae across multiple locations, finding crustaceans as primary prey and limited relationship between size and prey diversity.
