Abstract: | During the summer of 1970, plankton samples were made in the Bay of Eilat (Red Sea) to study the vertical distribution and diurnal migration of zooplankton. During this project, three programs of 24 h were carried out with a closing net. The hauls were taken every 2 h in different depths, together with measurements of temperature and salinity. The vertical distribution of hydromedusae, especially of Aglaura hemistoma, Péron and Lesueur, 1809 and Liriope tetraphylla (Chamisso and Eysenhardt, 1821), between the surface and 300 m is described. The diurnal migration for these two species was studied. Presumably temperature and salinity had no direct influence on vertical distribution and diurnal migration, as there was a homogeneous water body. The results are discussed. |
