Abstract:Although molecular tools are becoming more important in the delineation of scyphozoan species there is, perforce, a need to substantiate new species definitions using morphological data. Access to type material is often difficult and detailed, raw morphometric data are rarely provided in older type descriptions, which makes comparisons of new with old challenging. Here, we use null models based on simple measures of central tendency to generate morphometric data sets for four species of Aurelia, three species … Show more
