A man of far-reaching influence, Agassiz had attracted many talented young men to the Lawrence Scientific School, and most of them played a prominent role in promoting the study of natural history, including the Georgian Joseph LeConte, who became a leading geologist, and John McCrady, a South Carolinian who earned a place as a pioneer in hydrozoan zoology.

Muscle cells with reduced epithelial components, or "pure myocytes" (without an epithelial component), are best seen in the swim musculature of scyphozoan, cubozoan, and some hydrozoan meduase (Chapman, 1974; Satterlie and Spencer, 1983: Satterlie, 2011, 2015).
