Genetic analysis of Octopus cyanea reveals high gene flow in the South‐West Indian Ocean

Ecology and Evolution
Octopus cyanea (Gray, 1849), abundant in the South‐West Indian Ocean (SWIO), constitutes a vital resource for both subsistence and commercial fisheries.

Deep-water cephalopods from GFCM Geographical Sub-area 15 (Central Mediterranean) [PDF]

, 2016
The cephalopod fauna of the circalittoral waters around the Maltese Islands has not been systematically studied to date. A list of the species collected during MEDITS surveys, made in General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean's Geographical ...

The Cuttlebone Blueprint for Multifunctional Metamaterials: Design Taxonomy, Functional Decoupling, and Future Horizons

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 36, 4 May 2026.
Cuttlebone‐inspired metamaterials exploit a septum‐wall architecture to achieve excellent mechanical and functional properties. This review classifies existing designs into direct biomimetic, honeycomb‐type, and strut‐type architectures, summarizes governing design principles, and presents a decoupled design framework for interpreting multiphysical ...

Mesopelagic Fish as a Promising New Source of Omega‐3 Fatty Acids in Comparison With Australian Commercial Seafood

Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, Volume 103, Issue 5, Page 489-494, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Global dietary guidelines consistently recommend regular seafood consumption to support adequate omega‐3 long‐chain (≥ C20) polyunsaturated fatty acid (n‐3 LC‐PUFA) intake. Most international health authorities advise two servings of seafood per week, including at least one serve of oily fish, to achieve approximately 500 mg/day of combined ...

Shifting Seas, Changing Diets: Evidence of Temporal Dietary Shifts in Marine Megafauna in Southern Brazil (2017–2023)

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding the dietary dynamics of marine megafauna is essential for interpreting ecological interactions and assessing environmental changes in marine ecosystems. We analysed temporal trends in the diets of eight megafaunal species, comprising marine mammals, seabirds, and sea turtles.

From Natural to Human‐Dominated Seascapes: Habitat Loss for Guiana Dolphins Over Two Decades

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Changes in natural environments, such as coastal and marine zones, caused by human activities impact the quality of habitats and their inhabitants, ultimately jeopardising species conservation. As human activity is ever‐increasing, it is imperative to understand how multiple stressors, such as shipping, fisheries and pollution, affect marine ...

General-purpose and special-purpose visual systems [PDF]

, 2006
The information that eyes supply supports a wide variety of functions, from the guidance systems that enable an animal to navigate successfully around the environment, to the detection and identification of predators, prey, and conspecifics.

Multiple Longitudinal Tracts in the Cephalopod Arm Sensorimotor System

Journal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 534, Issue 5, May 2026.
Octopuses have a rich behavioral repertoire, coordinating complex movements along the length of an arm. The neural circuits controlling these behaviors are poorly understood. We employ tract‐tracing to investigate longitudinal tracts in the octopus arm.

Head and Whisker Behaviours Observed During Foraging in Northern Elephant Seals (Mirounga angustirostris)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
We observed a range of behaviours during foraging, including forward swimming, vertical diving, swooping, dabbing, sweeping and rotations. Head dabbing was also sometimes accompanied by the seal producing infrasounds, the bouts of which coincided with rhythmic whisker protractions. ABSTRACT Pinnipeds use their whiskers to detect and follow hydrodynamic

Trends in marine species distribution models: a review of methodological advances and future challenges

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 5, May 2026.
Correlative species distribution models (SDMs) are quantitative tools in biogeography and macroecology. Building upon the ecological niche concept, they correlate environmental covariates to species presence to model habitat suitability and predict species distributions.
