Stable Isotope Composition of Skin Layers Confirms Trophic Differentiation of Baird's and Sato's Beaked Whales (Berardius spp.) in the Western North Pacific [PDF]
ABSTRACT Rationale Closely related whale species can appear similar yet occupy distinct ecological niches. Sato's beaked whale (Berardius minimus) was only recently recognized as a separate species and was previously grouped with Baird's beaked whale (Berardius bairdii), limiting our understanding of their ecological differences.

The Inner Lives of Cephalopods
Synopsis The minds of cephalopods have captivated scientists for millennia, yet the extent that we can understand their subjective experiences remains contested. In this article, we consider the sum of our scientific progress towards understanding the inner lives of cephalopods.

Relationship between seawater temperature, brain GnRH-like peptide expression, and gonadal development in wild bigfin reef squid (Sepioteuthis lessoniana) [PDF]
Background 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]
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 ...

The evolution of predator avoidance in cephalopods: A case of brain over brawn?
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
Cephalopods, including octopuses, squids, and cuttlefishes, are exploited by both bottom trawl and small-scale fisheries (SSF) in most of the Mediterranean areas.

The Case for Octopus Consciousness: Unity
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).

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 ...
