What is Not All Ctenophores Are Bioluminescent:: Pleurobrachia about?

The study investigates the bioluminescence of the ctenophore genus Pleurobrachia, traditionally thought to be luminescent. Through various physical and chemical assays, the authors found no evidence of bioluminescence in Pleurobrachia or its closely related genus Hormiphora, contrasting with other tested ctenophores that exhibited luminescence. This challenges the prevailing belief that all ctenophores are bioluminescent and suggests that Pleurobrachia is a notable exception.
