Comb jellies used in study on adaptability for vastly different environments

A collage of five comb jelly species that were used in a study that provided insight into how related ocean creatures have adapted to live in vastly different environments. Starting in the upper left and moving clockwise, the species are: (Beroe cucumis), (Leucothea pulchra), (Beroe abyssicola), (Bathocyroe aff. fosteri) and an undescribed mertensiid.
