Characterizing the secret diets of siphonophores (Cnidaria: Hydrozoa) using DNA metabarcoding.
Siphonophores (Cnidaria: Hydrozoa) are abundant and diverse gelatinous predators in open-ocean ecosystems. Due to limited access to the midwater, little is known about the diets of most deep-dwelling gelatinous species, which constrains our understanding of food-web structure and nutrient flow in th...
