“…Introduction of non-indigenous species is a serious threat to native biodiversity and a major source of biological pollution (Carlton, 1989; Boudreaux and Walters, 2006; Paul and Kar, 2016; Soares et al ., 2022). Many invasive gelatinous zooplankton species have considerable ecological and economic effects on the recipient ecosystem (Galil et al ., 1990; Purcell et al ., 2001).…”

The epibenthic euryhaline hydromedusa Vallentinia gabriellae Vannucci Mendes, 1948 is an olindiid species native to tropical Atlantic waters. Here, we describe the cryptic introduction of this species in an estuary along the coast of Kerala, in southwestern India. This study records the existence of V. gabriellae outside of Atlantic waters for the first time and documents its geographical range expansion. Our identification was based on a combined morphological and DNA barcoding assessment using the COI and 28S markers. Although we noted some morphological differences between our specimens and those from their native range, our findings were conclusive. We suggest that phenotypic plasticity may result from differences such as prey availability between the native and introduced habitats. V. gabriellae medusae are epibenthic and cling to a variety of hard and soft substrates, including bivalves. Our specimens were associated with the invasive fouling mussel Mytella strigata, and we suggest that V. gabriellae could have been transported along with these mussels to the Kerala coast.

“…Invasive species are one of the major threats in several coastal communities (Carlton, 1989;Carlton, 2001;Paul and Kar, 2016;Soares et al, 2018), being responsible for ecological, economical, and social impacts, such as the loss of biodiversity and biomass, and damage to ecosystem goods and services (Bellard et al, 2016;Gallardo et al, 2016;Vilà and Hulme, 2018;Walsh et al, 2016). Jellyfish have high invasive potential due to the ability of their planktonic and benthic (polyp) stages to survive under drastic environmental changes; however, worldwide, there are only five species for which there are confirmed reports of biological invasion (Bayha and Graham, 2014).…”

“…Jellyfish have high invasive potential due to the ability of their planktonic and benthic (polyp) stages to survive under drastic environmental changes; however, worldwide, there are only five species for which there are confirmed reports of biological invasion (Bayha and Graham, 2014). Besides being a threat to the coastal ecosystem function (Graham et al, 2003;Paul and Kar, 2016), jellyfish can cause significant economic problems by impacting aquaculture systems (Purcell et al, 2013;Dong et al, 2017).…”
