Cuttlefish Sepia officinalis Preferentially Respond to Bottom Rather than Side Stimuli When Not Allowed Adjacent to Tank Walls. [PDF]
Cuttlefish are cephalopods capable of rapid camouflage responses to visual stimuli. However, it is not always clear to what these animals are responding.

Shoaling behaviour in the European cuttlefishSepia officinalis
AbstractGroup living is a common behavioural feature in many different animal species. It offers a multitude of fitness benefits, such as increased opportunities to find resources, improved predator vigilance and potentially even social learning. In cephalopods, social grouping behaviour has mainly been reported for squid species, with up to several ...

Hypoxic Induced Decrease in Oxygen Consumption in Cuttlefish (Sepia officinalis) Is Associated with Minor Increases in Mantle Octopine but No Changes in Markers of Protein Turnover [PDF]
The common cuttlefish (Sepia officinalis), a dominant species in the north-east Atlantic ocean and Mediterranean Sea, is potentially subject to hypoxic conditions due to eutrophication of coastal waters and intensive aquaculture. Here we initiate studies

First Evidence of Microplastics in the Yolk and Embryos of Common Cuttlefish (Sepia officinalis) from the Central Adriatic Sea: Evaluation of Embryo and Hatchling Structural Integrity and Development. [PDF]
Simple Summary Microplastic accumulation in aquatic environments could represent a potential risk to wildlife health and survival. Their transfer along the trophic web could threaten ecosystem stability.

Investigation of Calcination of Sepia officinalis Cuttlefish Bone for Reinforcement of Polyvinyl Alcohol Added Nano-Size Montmorillonite. [PDF]
This study aims to investigate the effects on calcination of Sepia officinalis cuttlefish bone (cuttlebone) to enhance reinforcement of polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH) added with nano-size montmorillonite (MMT) blends as potential bio-compatible materials.

Characterization of homeobox genes reveals sophisticated regionalization of the central nervous system in the European cuttlefish Sepia officinalis. [PDF]
Cephalopod mollusks possess a number of anatomical traits that often parallel vertebrates in morphological complexity, including a centralized nervous system with sophisticated cognitive functionality.

The growth of the buccal mass in Sepia officinalis: functional changes throughout ontogeny
Due to their small size, juveniles are more likely to show lower absolute levels of performance leading to a potential competitive disadvantage compared to adults.

Age validation in early stages of Sepia officinalis from beak microstructure
This is the first study addressing validation of the early growth stages (including the first increment) in the beaks of juvenile cuttlefishes. The age validation in juveniles of Sepia officinalis was performed by comparison of the number of increments ...
