Elemental Ratios in Cuttlebone Indicate Growth Rates in the Cuttlefish Sepia pharaonis
Cuttlebone is a hard calcified structure that supports the cuttlefish body and aids in the regulation of buoyancy. The calcification rate of cuttlebone is high and is close to the growth rate of the cuttlefish mantle.

A Migration-Based Cuttlefish Algorithm With Short-Term Memory for Optimization Problems
Cuttlefish algorithm (CFA) is a metaheuristic bio-inspired algorithm that mimics the color-changing behavior by the cuttlefish. It is produced by light reflected from different layers of cells and involves two processes, i.e., reflection and visibility ...

Early Exposure to Water Turbidity Affects Visual Capacities in Cuttlefish (Sepia officinalis)
In La Manche (English Channel) the level of turbidity changes, not only seasonally and daily in seawater but also along the coast. As a consequence, vision in marine species is limited when based only on contrast-intensity.

Learned valuation during forage decision-making in cuttlefish [PDF]
Decision-making, when humans and other animals choose between two options, is not always based on the absolute values of the options but can also depend on their relative values.

The effect of unexpected rewards on decision making in cuttlefish
Despite numerous studies demonstrating the cognitive ability of cephalopods, there is currently no study showing an emotion-like behavior in this group of animals.

The brain structure and the neural network features of the diurnal cuttlefish Sepia plangon
Summary: Cuttlefish are known for their rapid changes of appearance enabling camouflage and con-specific communication for mating or agonistic display. However, interpretation of their sophisticated behaviors and responsible brain areas is based on the ...

A preliminary analysis of sleep-like states in the cuttlefish Sepia officinalis. [PDF]
Sleep has been observed in several invertebrate species, but its presence in marine invertebrates is relatively unexplored. Rapid-eye-movement (REM) sleep has only been observed in vertebrates.

The Swimming of Cuttlefish [PDF]
WE are indebted to Prof. Polimanti for directing our attention to his previously published observations on the swimming of cuttlefish. We have not access to the journal in which his work was published, so, unfortunately, have not at the time of writing been able to read it.
