Bio‐Inspired Magnetically Tunable Structural Colors from Elliptical Self‐Assembled Block Copolymer Microparticles

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 38, 11 May 2026.
Cephalopod‐inspired photonic microparticles with dynamic structural coloration are fabricated via confined self‐assembly of linear block copolymers into ellipsoids containing stacked lamellae. Embedded superparamagnetic nanoparticles enable rapid magnetic alignment, restoring vivid, angle‐dependent color.

TECHNOLOGY AND MANAGEMENT IN MAURITANIAN CEPHALOPOD FISHERIES [PDF]

open access: yes
If the technology in a multi-species fishery is such that there is jointness in inputs and non-separability between inputs and outputs, then management on a species-by-species basis may lead to unintended outcomes, including over-exploitation of the ...

Dynamic Courtship Signals and Mate Preferences in Sepia plangon

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2020
Communication in cuttlefish includes rapid changes in skin coloration and texture, body posture and movements, and potentially polarized signals. The dynamic displays are fundamental for mate choice and agonistic behavior.

Cuttlefish responses to visual orientation of substrates, water flow and a model of motion camouflage [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Low-level mechanisms in vertebrate vision are sensitive to line orientation. Here we investigate orientation sensitivity in the cuttlefish Sepia pharaonis, by allowing animals to settle on stripe patterns.

Identifying the structure in cuttlefish visual signals [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 2002
The common cuttlefish ( Sepia officinalis ) communicates and camouflages itself by changing its skin colour and texture. Hanlon and Messenger (1988 Phil. Trans. R. Soc. Lond . B 320, 437–487) classified these visual displays, recognizing 13 distinct body patterns.

The Cuttlebone Blueprint for Multifunctional Metamaterials: Design Taxonomy, Functional Decoupling, and Future Horizons

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 36, 4 May 2026.
Cuttlebone‐inspired metamaterials exploit a septum‐wall architecture to achieve excellent mechanical and functional properties. This review classifies existing designs into direct biomimetic, honeycomb‐type, and strut‐type architectures, summarizes governing design principles, and presents a decoupled design framework for interpreting multiphysical ...

Cephalopod Ink: Production, Chemistry, Functions and Applications

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2014
One of the most distinctive and defining features of coleoid cephalopods—squid, cuttlefish and octopus—is their inking behavior. Their ink, which is blackened by melanin, but also contains other constituents, has been used by humans in various ways for ...

Diet composition of fish species from the southern continental shelf of Colombia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The diet composition of 30 fish species belonging to 16 families from the Pacific Coast of Colombia is described. Benthic crustaceans (37.5%) and bony fishes (23.7%, chiefly demersal) were the most important food items for the fish species analyzed. Data

Enabling Metal‐Based Soft Robotics Through Investment Casting

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.
Vacuum investment casting enables manufacturing of compliant soft robotic structures out of AA7075 high‐strength aluminum alloy. Additively manufactured patterns are converted into metal soft robotic structures addressing long lasting challenges like durability and nonlinearity of elastomer‐based soft robotics.

Effect of bait\'s type and shape on catching efficiency of Pots (Gargoor) in Bandar Lengeh waters (Hormozgan province) [PDF]

open access: yesبوم‌شناسی آبزیان, 2017
Gargoor, a wired traditional pot, is used to catch demersal fish on rocky substrates. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of bait's type and shape on catching efficiency of Gargoors in Bandar Lengeh waters (Hormozgan).
