The paper describes the structure and function of the nervous system in Nanomia septata, showing how it coordinates swimming bells for foraging and escape behaviors through a combination of giant axons, nerve networks, and FMRFamide-immunoreactive tracts.

The paper describes the structure and function of the nervous system in the nectophores of Nanomia bijuga, highlighting roles in locomotion, sensory input, and chemical release.
