Recent studies have shown that coastal and shelf cephalopod populations have increased
globally over the last six decades. Although cephalopod landings are dominated by the …

Here, three researchers who have recently embarked on careers in cephalopod biology
discuss the current state of the field and offer their hopes for the future. Seven major topics …

Does warmth from hydrothermal springs play a vital role in the biology and ecology of
abyssal animals? Deep off central California, thousands of octopus (Muusoctopus robustus) …

The reproductive process in Octopus maya was analyzed to establish the amount of reactive
oxygen species that the embryos inherit from females, during yolk synthesis. At the same …

Aside from being one of the most fascinating groups of marine organisms, cephalopods play
a major role in marine food webs, both as predators and as prey, while representing key …

Octopus maya is one of the most promising candidates for octopus aquaculture due to its
holobenthic development. The objectives of this study were to investigate: i) whether the …

Shallow waters are characterized by fluctuating environmental conditions, modulating
marine life cycles and biological phenomena. Multiple variations in water temperature could …

Most of our understanding on embryonic development in cephalopods comes from studies
using constant temperature. Even though spawning generally occurs at relatively stable …

The development of cephalopods early life stages is strongly influenced by environmental
variables, especially temperature. Octopus tehuelchus (d'Orbigny, 1834) is an Atlantic …

As the demand for Octopus maya grows, sustainable farming practices become essential to
prevent overexploitation, so that farming can be developed as a sustainable alternative to …
