Abstract

BACKGROUND: The cosmopolitan moon jelly Aurelia is characterized by high degrees of morphological and ecological plasticity, and subsequently by an unclear taxonomic status. The latter has been revised repeatedly over the last century, dividing the genus Aurelia in as many as 12 or as little as two species. We used molecular data and phenotypic traits to unravel speciation processes and phylogeographic patterns in Aurelia. RESULTS: Mitochondrial and nuclear DNA data (16S and ITS-1/5.8S rDNA) from 66 world-wide sampled specimens reveal star-like tree topologies, unambiguously differentiating 7 (mtDNA) and 8 (ncDNA) genetic entities with sequence divergences ranging from 7.8 to 14% (mtDNA) and 5 to 32% (ncDNA), respectively. Phylogenetic patterns strongly suggest historic speciation events and the reconstruction of at least 7 different species within Aurelia. Both genetic divergences and life history traits showed associations to environmental factors, suggesting ecological differentiation forced by divergent selection. Hybridization and introgression between Aurelia lineages likely occurred due to secondary contacts, which, however, did not disrupt the unambiguousness of genetic separation. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings recommend Aurelia as a model system for using the combined power of organismic, ecological, and molecular data to unravel speciation processes in cosmopolitan marine organisms.

Schroth et al. (2002) defined the ARAB lineage with specimens from the Red Sea and from the Persian Gulf, the latter indicated as the type locality for Aurelia dubia.
“Schroth et al. (2002) defined the ARAB lineage with specimens from the Red Sea and from the Persian Gulf, the latter indicated as the type locality for Aurelia dubia.”

The Discussion (Phylogenetic patterns and speciation; page unavailable) treats the Red Sea and Arabian Gulf specimens as separate clades, contrary to the claim that both defined ARAB. The Results (mtDNA variation, Table 2; page unavailable) lists ARAB separately from TET and labels ARAB as an unidentified Aurelia species. Our copy does not identify the Persian Gulf as the type locality of Aurelia dubia. (LLM, conf=0.86)

Only one specimen of A. aurita is from the Northwest Pacific, reported from Armani et al. (2013).
“Only one specimen of A. aurita is from the Northwest Pacific, reported from Armani et al. (2013), from a northwestern Pacific sample that is also present in Schroth et al. (2002).”
From The importance of molecular characters when morphological variability hinders diagnosability: systematics of the moon jellyfish genus Aurelia (Cnidaria: Scyphozoa) (2021) · cites this paper as Schroth et al. (2002)
The Animal samples section (page unavailable) confirms that Schroth et al. included one North-Western Pacific sample, but identifies it as A. limbata, not A. aurita. The paper predates Armani et al. (2013), so our copy cannot establish that the specimen reported there is the same sample. (LLM, conf=0.85)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measured
The 16S sequence posted in GenBank from the LIM lineage by Schroth et al. (2002), which they considered A. limbata, belongs to the Mljet lakes, Croatia, and in the paper's 16S phylogeny is part of the A. relicta clade.
“The 16S sequence these authors posted in GenBank from the LIM lineage, which they consider A. limbata, belongs to the Mljet lakes, Croatia, and therefore in our 16S phylogeny is part of the A. relicta clade (Fig. S4).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
