Description

TABLE 3. Summary of data and diagnostic characters for distinction of the currently recognized families of “ Semaeostomeae ” medusae. Spp. = number of valid species of the family/subfamily, if the literature mentions undescribed or doubtful species the number was put in brackets and followed by a question mark. Tentacles = presence or absence of tentacles and, if present, how they are organized. Gastrovascular cavity = organization of the cavity, with radial septa, radial canals, ring canal and branching of canals. Gonads = organization of gonads: inverted = contained inside the body; everted = parts of the gonads outside the body. Subgenital ostia = present or absent. Rhopalia = number and position of rhopalia; question mark (?) means that the character is not known for the genus or its state is doubtful. Mostly after: Mayer (1910); Kramp (1961); Russell (1970); Larson (1986); Mianzan & Cornelius (1999); Gershwin & Collins (2002); Matsumoto et al. (2003); Raskoff & Matsumoto (2004); Bayha & Dawson (2010); Morandini & Marques (2010); Straehler-Pohl et al. (2011); Jarms & Morandini (2019); Collins et al. (2022). * signifies character not described in original species description but visible in photograph in Jarms & Morandini (2019).
