Global diversity of inland water cnidarians

Global diversity of inland water cnidarians is low, containing <40 species belonging to phylogenetically distinct groups representing independent invasion events: the common and cosmopolitan hydras (12-15species); the sporadically occurring freshwater medusae (6-16sp.); the Cordylophorinae (2sp.)...
