In fact scientists do not know what the comb jellies ancestors are.

At a depth of 800 feet a beautiful fist-sized comb jelly could be seen.

Recent studies show that they also eat comb jellies.

This comb jelly has the capacity for self-fertilization, as they are hermaphroditic.

In addition, a study in 2008 suggested the earliest animals may have been similar to modern comb jellies.

Adult comb jellies and jellyfish obey the rule, often being mainly transparent.

Also commonly known as a comb jelly this animal is capable of bioluminescence.

Comb jellies do not sting and recent studies have shown that they are not actually cnidarians.

Adult comb jellies and jellyfish are mainly transparent, like their watery background.

Many questions have arisen about the availability of food for the benthic comb jelly.

For instance, one comb jelly,Beroe, was voracious in its eating habits.

They are distinguished from other comb jellies by the complete absence of tentacles, in both juvenile and adult stages.

Jellyfish, comb jellies, and related animals have diffuse nerve nets rather than a central nervous system.

Tentaculata is a class of comb jellies.

Cydippida is an order of comb jellies.

Two morphological differences separating it from previously known comb jellies warranted the naming of a new family for this animal.

The comb jellies, unperturbed by the strange, clumsy intruder, sailed off into the darker water like the shadows of clouds.

The Octonauts must rescue Peso when he gets trapped inside a giant comb jelly.

Ctenoplana is a genus of comb jellies, the only in the family Ctenoplanidae.

Unlike other comb jellies, the body of cestids is greatly flattened, and drawn out into a long ribbon-like shape.

The benthic comb jelly is a gelatinous organism 5-8 cm wide and 10-20 cm long.

The phylum Ctenophora, the comb jellies, is a phylum of marine invertebrates.

The benthic comb jelly was discovered off the coast of Japan at the Ryukyu Trench.

For the comb jelly genus, see Cabira (ctenophore).

Ctenophores (comb jellies) are a separate phylum from Cnidaria.

Even some scientists include the phylum ctenophora when they are referring to jellyfish.

The position of Ctenophora in the family tree of animals has been debated for many years and is still unclear.

Ctenophora is a genus of true crane fly.

The sister group of the Cnidaria is the Ctenophora, the comb-jellies.

There are about 150 described species of ctenophora spread throughout the world's oceans, from shallow estuarine waters to the deep sea.

Traditionally, Ctenophora has been thought to represent an ancient metazoan phylum.

In its broadest sense, the term jellyfish also generally refers to members of the phylum Ctenophora.

Cyclocoela is a classification of Ctenophora.

Somatina ctenophora is a moth of the Geometridae family.

The phylum Ctenophora, the comb jellies, is a phylum of marine invertebrates.

Platyctenida is the only benthic group of organism in the phylum Ctenophora.

Ctenophora species are important bioindicators.

It displays a very iconographic invertebrae ctenophora zooming off like an alien spaceship.

Nonetheless, the term coelenterate is still used in informal settings to refer to the Cnidaria and Ctenophora.

Cnidaria and Ctenophora both exhibit radial symmetry and are collectively known as coelenterates.

The clade excludes the Ctenophora (comb jellies).

It was broken down into two separate phyla: the Cnidaria (jellyfish) and the Ctenophora (comb jellies).

The clade is usually held to contain at least Ctenophora, Cnidaria, and Bilateria.

Ctenophora (a phylum within the Eumetazoa subkingdom of animals, commonly referred to as comb jellies)

Pleurobrachia bachei is a member of the phylum Ctenophora and is commonly referred to as a sea gooseberry.

Beroe ovata Bruguière, 1789 (Ctenophora)

Ctenophora are large (about 20 mm long, with 25-mm wingspans), shiny black craneflies with large yellow, orange or red markings to mimic wasps.

Life Cycle: Ctenophora reproduce sexually, Self-fertilization is somewhat rare and is known only to appear in the genus of Mnemiopsis.
