Medusae of Turritopsis dohrnii undergo reverse development in response to physical damage, adverse environmental conditions, or aging. Senescent, weakened or damaged medusae transform into a cluster of poorly differentiated cells (known as the cyst stage), which metamorphose back into a preceding life cycle stage, the polyp. During the metamorphosi...

Biological systematics provides taxonomic information and expertise for biogeography and biological invasion research and management. However, the systematic classification of most taxa, including some alien and invasive species, relies only on morphology. This applies for example to Sertularella tongensis Stechow, 1919, an alien hydrozoan recently...

The present paper reviews all 14 genera and 46 species belonging to the family Pandeidae from the China seas. Two new species, Leuckartiara ruberiverruca Xu, Guo & Du, sp. nov. and Merga longicosta Xu, Huang & Wang, sp. nov., from the south-central South China Sea, are described and illustrated. Keys to the known genera of family Pandeidae in the China seas and to all known species of the genus Merga are provided. Other data are briefly summarized to the list of species presented in the family Pandeidae in the China seas. The type species were deposited at the South China Sea Fisheries Research Institute, Chinese Academy of Fishery Science.
... For this reason, Acta Oceanologica Sinica (AOS) organize this special issue of the marine taxonomy and new records, to help on covering as many marine new species and records done by Chinese taxonomists as possible. We report a series of new species and records from Chinese coastlines, offshores, high seas and the adjacent West Pacific and eastern Indian Ocean, including marine cyanobacteria (Zhang et al., 2018c), dinoflagellates (Hu et al., 2018;Xiao et al., 2018), Haptophyta (Zhang et al., 2018d), diatoms (Li et al., 2018a), green alga (Ding et al., 2018), foraminifera (Lei and Li, 2018Munir and Sun, 2018a), ostracods (Du et al., 2018b), ciliates (Chen and Xu, 2018Sun, 2018b), trichodinids (Zhan et al., 2018), jellyfish (Aungtonya et al., 2018;Du et al., 2018a;Guo et al., 2018b;Wang et al., 2018b), polychaeta Sui and Li, 2018;Sun et al., 2018b;Wang and Li, 2018;Wu and Xu, 2018), nematodes (Fu et al., 2018;Guo et al., 2018a;Huang et al., 2018;Shi et al., 2018;Sun et al., 2018a) (Belattmania et al., 2018), copepods (Liu et al., 2018;Ma and Li, 2018), chiton (Wang et al., 2018c), shrimps (Gan and Li, 2018), Gastropoda (Chen and Zhang, 2018), microzooplankton , and mesozooplankton . This is the first special issue on marine taxonomy in AOS, we hope it can receive more public attention and encouragement on marine taxonomic studies in China. ...
