The evolution of predator avoidance in cephalopods: A case of brain over brawn?
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 Predation is a major evolutionary driver of animal adaptation. However, understanding of anti-predator evolution is biased toward vertebrate taxa.

Assessing Cephalopods Fisheries in the Strait of Sicily by Using Poor Data Modeling
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021 Cephalopods, including octopuses, squids, and cuttlefishes, are exploited by both bottom trawl and small-scale fisheries (SSF) in most of the Mediterranean areas.

Cephalopod dynamic camouflage [PDF]
Current Biology, 2007 Everyone knows what camouflage is and how it works. And many people (some scientists included) think chameleons are the masters of color change. Wrong on both counts. In this primer, I provide an overview of recent work on the mechanisms and principles of rapid adaptive camouflage of cephalopods — octopus, cuttlefish and squids.

Relationship between seawater temperature, brain GnRH-like peptide expression, and gonadal development in wild bigfin reef squid (Sepioteuthis lessoniana) [PDF]
Biological ResearchBackground Cephalopods are widely distributed in oceans worldwide and are important fishery resources. Most species have a lifespan of approximately one year and die after reproduction.

Cephalopod-omics: Emerging Fields and Technologies in Cephalopod Biology [PDF]
Integrative And Comparative Biology, 2023 Synopsis Few animal groups can claim the level of wonder that cephalopods instill in the minds of researchers and the general public. Much of cephalopod biology, however, remains unexplored: the largest invertebrate brain, difficult husbandry conditions, and complex (meta-)genomes, among many other things, have hindered progress in ...

Biology, 2023 Cephalopods’ remarkable behavior and complex neurobiology make them valuable comparative model organisms, but studies aimed at enhancing welfare of captive cephalopods remain uncommon.

Current Biology, 2023 Underlying all animal behaviors, from the simplest reflexive reactions to the more complex cognitive reasoning and social interaction, are nervous systems uniquely adapted to bodies, environments, and challenges of different animal species. Coleoid cephalopods - octopuses, squid, and cuttlefish - are widely recognized as the most behaviorally complex ...

The Case for Octopus Consciousness: Unity
NeuroSci, 2021 Birch et al. suggest that consciousness in any animal group must involve four aspects—perceptual richness, evaluative richness (affectivity), integration at one time (unity), and integration across time (temporality).

Molecular characterization of cell types in the squid Loligo vulgaris
eLife, 2023 Cephalopods are set apart from other mollusks by their advanced behavioral abilities and the complexity of their nervous systems. Because of the great evolutionary distance that separates vertebrates from cephalopods, it is evident that higher cognitive ...
