Eye Lens Structure of the OctopusEnteroctopus megalocyathus: Evidence of Growth [PDF]
ABSTRACT The need for age determination for the proper management of octopus fisheries has directed research attention to the few hard structures in the octopod's soft body, beak, statoliths, and the vestigial shell. So far, none of these structures have proved reliable or practical for the purpose.

Evaluating the Effects of Formulated Moist Diets on Juveniles of Patagonian OctopusEnteroctopus megalocyathus(Gould 1852) [PDF]
The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of Patagonian octopus fed with moist diets formulated with several local feed ingredients. All formulated diets were based on crab paste (70%) and the experimental feed ingredient (30%). Experiment 1 assayed salmon meal, prime sardine meal, and wheat gluten, using fresh fish as a control; experiment

A detailed description of the microanatomy of the digestive system of Enteroctopus megalocyathus is given, and this revealed some differences between this octopod species and other species of Octopodidae previously described. These differences are mainly related to tissues lining the lumen of digestive organs.

This paper provides the first morphological and chemical description of the stylets (vestigial shell) of Enteroctopus megalocyathus, a large, commercially and ecologically important benthic species that is fished along the southern coasts of Argentina and Chile. The stylets are thin, semi-transparent curved structures embedded in the muscular tissue of

Feeding ecology of Enteroctopus megalocyathus (Cephalopoda: Octopodidae) in southern Chile
In this research we studied the diet of Enteroctopus megalocyathus from three principal locations of the octopus fishery (Ancud, Quellón and Melinka) in southern Chile. The gastric contents of 523 individuals, collected between October 1999 and September 2000, were examined and statistically analysed.

Validation of macroscopic maturity stages of the Patagonian red octopus Enteroctopus megalocyathus
Testes and ovaries of Enteroctopus megalocyathus collected along the Patagonian Atlantic coast were analysed histologically to validate the macroscopic maturity scales adopted for this species. Changes through the course of development of the seminiferous tubules and of the oocyte/follicular cell complexes were characterized and these were classified ...
