Bioluminescence in cephalopods: biodiversity, biogeography and research trends
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023 Numerous terrestrial and marine organisms, including cephalopods, are capable of light emission. In addition to communication, bioluminescence is used for attraction and defense mechanisms.

Current Biology, 2019 Cephalopods have captivated the minds of scientists for thousands of years, dating back to approximately 330 BC when Aristotle became fascinated by their ability to rapidly change colour. This remarkable ability, however, is not the only aspect of cephalopod behaviour that has garnered attention from the scientific community.

Unravelling the phylogenetic and ecological drivers of beak shape variability in cephalopods
Reviews in Fish Biology and Fisheries, 2022 Cephalopod beaks are essential for prey acquisition and fragmentation during feeding. Thus, it is expected that ecological pressures affect cephalopod beak shape.

Gelatinous cephalopods as important prey for a deep-sea fish predator
Marine Biology, 2022 We quantified cephalopods consumed by longnose lancetfish (Alepisaurus ferox, n = 1267 stomachs containing cephalopod remains) from 2009 to 2018 in the central North Pacific Ocean (between 0–35° N and 135–175° W).

Symbiotic organs shaped by distinct modes of genome evolution in cephalopods [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019 Significance Animal–microbe associations are critical drivers of evolutionary innovation, yet the origin of specialized symbiotic organs remains largely unexplored. We analyzed the genome of Euprymna scolopes, a model cephalopod, and observed large-scale

Contrasting Responses to Harvesting and Environmental Drivers of Fast and Slow Life History Species. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 According to their main life history traits, organisms can be arranged in a continuum from fast (species with small body size, short lifespan and high fecundity) to slow (species with opposite characteristics).

Biology, 2021 In their foraging behavior octopuses rely on arm search movements outside the visual field of the eyes. In these movements the environment is explored primarily by the suckers that line the entire length of the octopus arm.

Vertical Distribution Patterns of Cephalopods in the Northern Gulf of Mexico
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020 Cephalopods are important in midwater ecosystems of the Gulf of Mexico (GOM) as both predator and prey. Vertical distribution and migration patterns (both diel and ontogenic) are not known for the majority of deep-water cephalopods.

Foods, 2021 An appropriate seafood origin identification is essential for labelling regulation but also economic and ecological issues. Near infrared (NIRS) reflectance spectroscopy was employed to assess the origins of cuttlefish caught from five fishing FAO areas (
