MarineGEO is a global partnership, led by the Smithsonian Institution, working to understand how coastal marine ecosystems work and how to keep them working. We focus on biodiversity because it is the heart of functioning ecosystems, and on nearshore coastal habitats where biodiversity and people are concentrated and interact most. MarineGEO integrates biodiversity assessments, coordinate…
Biogeographic studies for the South-Western Atlantic Ocean are scarce. The purpose of this collaborative project is to merge expertises on areas of biodiversity inference in a comprehensive geographical and taxonomic analysis. (AU)
The overarching goal of SPSAS-evo (São Paulo School of Advanced Science Evolution) is to provide opportunities for close interaction among students and leading experts conducting cutting edge research in evolution, as well as to stimulate interdisciplinary discussion about hot topics in evolutionary biology. A historical discipline by definition, evolutionary biology nevertheless relies b…

Reproduction studies of Cubozoa are limited, hindering an evolutionary understanding on the subject, especially with respect to the existence of historical and functional patterns that could be characterized in this context. In this project, we propose to obtain histomorphological and ultrastructural data on the reproductive aspects of some cubo species with different reproduction strateg…
Diversity distribution patterns associated with bathymetric variation are related to a number of biotic and abiotic conditions which, alone, are not able to explain them. Functional traits of individuals mediate their responses to these conditions, thus affecting fitness to live in different habitats and spatial variation in species composition. Relating the distribution of organisms to t…
Variability in morphology, physiology and life history traits in marine invertebrates is frequently a result of phenotypic plasticity. It may contribute to the adaptation to heterogeneous environments and form the basis for species diversification. Although morphological plasticity in colonial hydrozoans is frequently related to variation in environmental conditions and assumed to be adap…

This project is centered on the subphylum Medusozoa, a diverse lineage with a long evolutionary history dating back to Neoproterozoic times. Similar to other Cnidaria, the unique cnida system of medusozoans plays a central role in various aspects of cnidarian biology, including taxonomy, ecology and, ultimately, evolution. Despite this central importance of cnidae, there is a lack of comp…
Reproductive patterns within Medusozoa (Cnidaria) are diverse. This subphylum, comprised by four classes (Hydrozoa, Scyphozoa, Staurozoa and Cubozoa), has a metagenetic life cycle, with sexual reproduction predominantly performed by the medusa stage. However, many aspects of sexual reproduction across this clade remain poorly understood. In my PhD project, I have been studying egg size va…
Cnidaria is one of the oldest animal phyla, and includes the corals, jellyfish, sea anenomes, and hydra. Its classes vary dramatically in species richness from 45 spp. in Cubozoa to 7,200 in Anthozoa, but the reasons that explain this variation are unknown. Likewise, this phylum have also evolved striking variation in morphology, ecology and metagenetic life cycles. However, the relations…
In marine populations, realized dispersal is known to directly affect population connectivity and determine the pattern and level of genetic differentiation. Although many benthic species of hydroids have experienced loss or reduction of their planktonic stage, they appear to be capable of long-distance dispersal via rafting due to their occurrence over wide geographic ranges. In addition…
