Genetic analysis of Octopus cyanea reveals high gene flow in the South-West Indian Ocean. [PDF]
Genetic data confirm high population connectivity across the SWIO for O. cyanea, This requires cross border management initiatives and future research and public engagement activities focusing on paralarvae ecology. There is further evidence that the mtDNA NCR does not seem to be rapidly mutating in cephalopods.

Artemia are potential food organisms for the mass culture of common octopus paralarvae but cause poor paralarval growth and mortality. To understand problems arising from Artemia use, we focused on Artemia flocculation in paralarval culture tanks ...

The common octopus is the most demanded cephalopod species for human consumption. Despite important advances realized recently, the main bottleneck for commercial production of the common octopus, Octopus vulgaris, is the mass mortality of paralarvae in ...

Distribution of ommastrephid paralarvae in the eastern Tropical Pacific
Jumbo squid (Dosidicus gigas) and purpleback squid (Sthenoteuthis oualaniensis) (Teuthida: Ommastrephidae) are thought to spawn in the eastern tropical Pacific. We used 10 years of plankton tow and oceanographic data collected in this region to examine the reproductive habits of these 2 ecologically important squid.

Tissues of Paralarvae and Juvenile Cephalopods [PDF]
Cephalopods have a different development to other molluscs and hatch as modified miniature adults called larvae, juveniles or, in some octopuses, paralarvae. The terminology used to describe young cephalopods is varied. In Octopus vulgaris and other members of Octopoda and Teuthida (squids), hatchlings are called paralarvae.

A molecular approach to identifying the prey of cephalopod paralarvae [PDF]
Abstract Roura, Á., González, Á. F., Pascual, S., and Guerra, Á. 2010. A molecular approach to identifying the prey of cephalopod paralarvae. – ICES Journal of Marine Science, 67: 1408–1412. A molecular method was developed to detect Artemia franciscana within Octopus vulgaris paralarvae, as a first step towards understanding the diet of

The high mortality of cephalopod early stages is the main bottleneck to grow them from paralarvae to adults in culture conditions, probably because the inadequacy of the diet that results in malnutrition. Since visual analysis of digestive tract contents

Abstract Habitat characterization is important to assess fully the niches of different organisms. There is a large knowledge gap regarding habitat use by deep‐sea benthic incirrate octopods, partly due to their assumed preference for hard‐to‐sample rocky substrata. This study uses observations from in situ videos recorded by remotely operated vehicles (

Dispersal modeling of octopoda paralarvae in the Gulf of Mexico
AbstractThe dynamics and population structure of octopus species in the Gulf of Mexico (GoM) can be studied by analyzing dispersal paralarvae mechanisms. Accordingly, this study focused on understanding octopus paralarval dispersal using numerical modeling.
