在大巴哈马浅滩的边缘观察了浅海栉水母 Beroe ovata 和 Bolinopsis vitrea 的斑块，以确定捕食者 Beroe ovata 和其猎物 Bolinopsis vitrea 之间的相互作用。对卵形贝罗伊（Beroe ovata）的实验室实验表明，它会对猎物的存在做出化学动力学反应。当它游泳时，它会与它所捕食的其他物发生碰撞。大纤毛作为切割工具的独特用途有助于捕食者从猎物身上去除组织，从而从每次遭遇中获得最大收益。通过潜水时的直接观察，收集了有关水平和垂直斑块、游泳速度、丰度和摄食行为的数据，并用于评估捕食者种群对其猎物的影响。这两个动物种群共同形成一个生态反馈系统，影响浮游生物群落的其他部分。
Patches of the neritic ctenophores Beroe ovata and Bolinopsis vitrea were observed on the edge of the Great Bahama Bank in order to determine the interaction between the predator Beroe ovata and its prey Bolinopsis vitrea. Laboratory experiments on Beroe ovata showed that it responds chemokinetically to the presence of its prey; as it swims it collides with other etenophores on which it preys. The unique use of macrocilia as cutting implements aids the predator in removing tissue from its prey, yielding maximum gain from each encounter. By means of direct observations while diving, data on horizontal and vertical patchiness, swimming speeds, abundance, and feeding behavior were collected, and used to assess the impact of populations of the predator on its prey. Together, these two animal populations form an ecological feed-back system which affects other portions of the planktonic community.
