Cuttlefish and other cephalopods achieve dynamic background matching with two general
classes of body patterns: uniform (or uniformly stippled) patterns and mottle patterns. Both …

Cuttlefish are cephalopod molluscs that achieve dynamic camouflage by rapidly extracting
visual information from the background and neurally implementing an appropriate skin (or …

Camouflage is the primary defense in cuttlefish. The rich repertoire of their body patterns can
be categorized into three types: uniform, mottle, and disruptive. Several recent studies have …

Cuttlefish, Sepia officinalis, can produce a variety of body patterns for camouflage on natural
substrates. Among these body patterns, the visual background cues for eliciting mottled …

Cephalopod mollusks including octopus and cuttlefish are adept at adaptive camouflage,
varying their appearance to suit the surroundings. This behavior allows unique access into …

Cephalopods have at least 20 body patterns for camouflage, yet these can be organized into
four categories: uniform, stipple, mottle, and disruptive (1). Among them, disruptive …

Cuttlefish (Sepia officinalis Linnaeus, 1758) on mixed light and dark gravel show disruptive
body patterns for camouflage. This response is evoked when the size of the gravel is …

Rapid adaptive camouflage is the primary defense of soft-bodied cuttlefish. Previous studies
have shown that cuttlefish body patterns are strongly influenced by visual edges in the …

Cuttlefish change their appearance rapidly for camouflage on different backgrounds.
Effective camouflage for a benthic organism such as cuttlefish must deceive predators …

Prey camouflage is an evolutionary response to predation pressure. Cephalopods have
extensive camouflage capabilities and studying them can offer insight into effective …
