Abstract:
      Box jellyfish Chiropsoides buitendijki from the coastal zone along the Andaman Sea, southwestern Thailand are characterized by a box-shaped body with unilateral branched tentacles and lack of interradial furrows. Tentacular banding was first reported in the present study with 1–3–2–3–2–3–2–3–1 patterns (1–major band, 2–thicker minor band and 3–thinner minor band). The DNA sequences of 18 S ribosomal RNA genes indicated that the specimen examined were genetically similar to C. buitendijki that was previously identified from the Nam Bor Bay, Phuket, Thailand, and distinct to the other known taxa in the order Chirodropida. In addition, a significant genetic divergence based on 16S mitochondrial gene was observed within the C. buitendijki samples. This indicates a population genetic differentiation but needs further confirmation.
中文摘要:
      采集于泰国西南部安达曼近岸海域的一种立方水母Chiropsoides buitendijki,伞部呈典型的箱式、触手单侧分支,并缺乏幅间沟。触手带型呈1–3–2–3–2–3–2–3–1(1-主带,2-粗副带,3-细副带)。18S核糖体基因序列分析证实了其分类地位。同时,16S线粒体基因序列揭示样品内存在一定的遗传分化,说明该种内可能存在不同的群体,值得进一步研究。
