‘Arm brains’ (axial nerves) of Jurassic coleoids and the evolution of coleoid neuroanatomy [PDF]
Although patchy, the fossil record of coleoids bears a wealth of information on their soft part anatomy. Here, we describe remains of the axial nerve cord from both decabrachian (Acanthoteuthis, Belemnotheutis, Chondroteuthis) and octobrachian ...

Transcriptomic analysis of oxidative stress mechanisms induced by acute nanoplastic exposure in Sepia esculenta larvae [PDF]
Nanoplastics (NPs), as a new type of pollutant with a size small than 1 μm, are ubiquitous and harmful to organisms. There has been an increasing amount of research concerning the effects of NPs on organisms over recent years, especially on aquatic ...

Distraction sinking and fossilized coleoid predatory behaviour from the German Early Jurassic [PDF]
Exceptional fossil preservation is required to conserve soft-bodied fossils and even more so to conserve their behaviour. Here, we describe a fossil of a co-occurrence of representatives of two different octobrachian coleoid species. The fossils are from

An Eocene orthocone from Antarctica shows convergent evolution of internally shelled cephalopods. [PDF]
BackgroundThe Subclass Coleoidea (Class Cephalopoda) accommodates the diverse present-day internally shelled cephalopod mollusks (Spirula, Sepia and octopuses, squids, Vampyroteuthis) and also extinct internally shelled cephalopods.

Analysis of catch rates of LED lamps using on the falling-net fishing vessels in South China Sea. [PDF]
Falling nets are a type of fishing gear that appeared and developed rapidly in the northern of South China Sea in the early 1990s. We have developed Light-emitting diode (LED) fishing lamps to replace metal halide (MH) lamps that reduce fuel consumption ...

Failed prey or peculiar necrolysis? Isolated ammonite soft body from the Late Jurassic of Eichstätt (Germany) with complete digestive tract and male reproductive organs [PDF]
Ammonoid soft parts have been rarely described. Here, we document the soft parts of a perisphinctid ammonite from the early Tithonian of Wintershof near Eichstätt (Germany). This exceptional preservation was enabled by the special depositional conditions

Development of a DNA Metabarcoding Method for the Identification of Crustaceans (Malacostraca) and Cephalopods (Coleoidea) in Processed Foods [PDF]
Seafood is a valuable commodity with increasing demand, traded for billions of USD each year. The volatility in supply chains and fluctuating prices contribute to the susceptibility of the seafood market to food fraud.
