Life cycle of the marbled octopus, Amphioctopus aegina (Gray) (Cephalopoda: Octopodidae) reared in the laboratory

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2011
Reproducing small eggs and planktonic hatchlings is a reproductive strategy of many species of benthic octopods although it is considered a pleisiomorphic state.

Shedding light on the parasite communities and diet of the deep‐sea shark Deania profundorum (Smith & Radcliffe, 1912) (Squaliform: Centrophoridae) from the Avilés Canyon (southern Bay of Biscay)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Deep‐sea elasmobranchs are less resilient to the increasing scale of anthropogenic impacts such as fisheries, owing to their life‐history traits. The necessity for proper management measures is hampered by the scant knowledge on these taxa and their biology. Here we provide the first comprehensive insight into the parasite infracommunities and

The complete mitochondrial genomes of two octopods Cistopus chinensis and Cistopus taiwanicus: revealing the phylogenetic position of the genus Cistopus within the order Octopoda. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
In the present study, we determined the complete mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequences of two species of Cistopus, namely C. chinensis and C. taiwanicus, and conducted a comparative mt genome analysis across the class Cephalopoda.

Prioritising research on endocrine disruption in the marine environment: a global perspective

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 2, Page 848-868, April 2026.
ABSTRACT A healthy ocean is a crucial life support system that regulates the global climate, is a source of oxygen and supports major economic activities. A vast and understudied biodiversity from micro‐ to macro‐organisms is integral to ocean health.

High‐Throughput DNA Sequencing Reveals Gastric Content Composition and Inter‐Specific Variation in Pampus Fishes

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
In this study, we employed high‐throughput sequencing of environmental DNA (eDNA) to conduct an analysis of the gastric contents composition and relative abundance from samples of P. argenteus and P. punctatissimus collected at the Jimiya Fish Pier in Qingdao, Shandong Province, and P. cinereus collected at the Qinglan Port in Wenchang, Hainan Province.

Genomic Divergence Between Octopus vulgaris and Its Undescribed Sister Species From the South Atlantic and Indian Ocean

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
Octopus vulgaris Type III — an undescribed Southern Hemisphere lineage occurring along the South African coast and Amsterdam Island — is genomically distinct from O. vulgaris sensu stricto and O. sinensis, as inferred from phylogenetic analyses of 338 nuclear loci and complete mitochondrial genomes, supporting the need for taxonomic re‐evaluation of ...
