Background Coleoid cephalopods (squids and octopuses) have evolved a camera eye, the structure of which is very similar to that found in vertebrates and which is considered a classic example of convergent evolution.

The insulin-like peptide (ILP) family is well known for regulating reproduction in invertebrates, while its role in mollusks remains largely unknown. In this study, we first isolated and characterized the ILP gene in the cuttlefish Sepiella japonica. The

Cephalopod Neural Networks [PDF]
Cephalopods have arguably the largest and most complex nervous systems amongst the invertebrates; but despite the squid giant axon being one of the best studied nerve cells in neuroscience, and the availability of superb information on the morphology of some cephalopod brains, there is surprisingly little known about the operation of the neural ...

Some cephalopods carry microorganisms in two specialized organs, the light organ and the accessory nidamental gland (ANG). For the light organ, comprehensive mechanisms have been described for winnowing (bacterial selection) and maintenance of the ...

Camouflage and Exploratory Avoidance of Newborn Cuttlefish under Warming and Acidification
Ocean warming and acidification have been shown to elicit deleterious effects on cephalopod mollusks, especially during early ontogeny, albeit effects on behavior remain largely unexplored.

Sensorial Hierarchy in Octopus vulgaris’s Food Choice: Chemical vs. Visual
Octopus vulgaris possesses highly sophisticated sense organs, processed by the nervous system to generate appropriate behaviours such as finding food, avoiding predators, identifying conspecifics, and locating suitable habitat.
