    Melicertum octocostatum is a species of cnidarians in the family Melicertidae. They are carnivores. Individuals can grow to 530 µm. They have asexual reproduction. Known occurrences, collected specimens and observations of Melicertum octocostatum (M. Sars 1835).
    In our phylogeny M. octocostatum is the basalmost leptothecate species with medusae with gonads on the radial canals. The clade defined by S. lobata and M. octocostatum (Melicertidae) has a basal position in Leptothecata ( Figs 1 and 2 ), similar to Leclère et al. 45 but different from Peña Cantero et al. 46.
    Medusae of this taxon have no ocelli or other marginal sensory structure 4, but the gonads are on the radial canals, which is a typical character of the medusa of Leptothecata. In our phylogeny M. octocostatum is the basalmost leptothecate species with medusae with gonads on the radial canals.
    Part of the taxon has gonothecae protected by phylactocarps or corbulae 5. Additional references: Gravier 108; Svoboda & Cornelius 109. Plumulariida sensu novum has a high nodal support and includes four families characterized by free nematothecae and bilateral symmetry of the hydrotheca in many species.
