HYDROMEDUSAE FROM THE EASTERN MEDITERRANEAN SEA

Hans-Eckart Schmidt

Open publisher page 14 citations

Abstract

ABSTRACT In ca. 170 plankton samples from the eastern Mediterranean Sea 15 species of hydro-medusae were found; six of these occur in the western Mediterranean but have not previously been found in the eastern part. Four species are new to the Mediterranean Sea; probably two of these have been transported through the Suez Canal from the Red Sea. Data of the stations where the plankton has been collected are included.
