IT is generally recognized that the cuttlebone not only serves the cuttlefish, Sepia officinalis (L.), as a skeleton but also gives it buoyancy. The cuttlebone contains gas spaces which give it a density of about 0.6. It is also known that cuttlefish kept in aquaria sometimes tend to float at the surface and appear to be lighter than sea water.

Journal of Experimental Biology, 2005
![Figure][1] It's been known for some time that cuttlefish have contractile veins, but only from dissections; nobody had ever seen them contract in a live, free-swimming cuttlefish. To investigate this remarkable feature, Alison King and her colleagues at Dalhousie University and the ...

Learning in the cuttlefish, Sepia
Animal Behaviour, 1973Abstract The visual attack of the cuttlefish, Sepia (Mollusca: Cephalopoda) was used as a system to examine factors involved in learning. Cuttlefish shown prawns behind glas soon learn to stop striking at them, and the level of striking and its rate of waning were compared during continuous and repeated presentation (at different intervals). It was

Myocarditis in the common cuttlefish (Sepia oficinalis)
Journal of Comparative Pathology, 1990This report describes five cases of myocarditis in the common cuttlefish, Sepia officinalis. Both the systemic heart and the branchial hearts exhibited inflammatory lesions. Vibrio species were isolated from four of these cases.

Studies in Costume & Performance, 2020
This research report discusses and reflects on the development of the costume design and choreography of the performance piece Cuttlefish, 2017–19. In the performance, the costumes played an essential role as they completely transformed the movements and forms of the dancers.
