Nautiloid cephalopods – a review of their use and potential in biostratigraphy
(Biologiezentrum des Oberösterreichischen Landesmuseums, 2014-03)
In terms of their use as biostratigraphical tools, nautiloid cephalopods are the poor relations of ammonoids. Nevertheless, in certain situations, they may provide useful biostratigraphical data, particularly where other ...
Cannibalism in cephalopods
(Springer, 2010)
Cannibalism refers to the action of consuming
a member of the same species and is common
in many taxa. This paper reviews the available
literature on cannibalism in cephalopods. All species
of the class Cephalopoda are ...
The cephalopod prey of the Weddell seal, Leptonychotes weddellii, a biological sampler of the Antarctic marine ecosystem
(Springer, 2016-03)
Weddell seals, Leptonychotes weddellii, are important apex predators in the food web of the Antarctic marine ecosystem. However, detailed information on their trophic relationships with cephalopods is scarce. Moreover, ...
Predation on cephalopods by Weddell seals, Leptonychotes weddellii, at Hope Bay, Antarctic Peninsula
(Springer, 2012-04)
Cephalopods play a key role in marine environments as food resources for top predators such as marine mammals and seabirds. However, detailed information on their trophic relationships with Antarctic seals is scarce. The ...
Nautiloid cephalopod concentration beds of the San Juan Formation (Middle Darriwilian) of the Argentine Precordillera
(Asociación Paleontológica Argentina, 2013-07)
Concentrations of orthoconic nautiloid cephalopods on bedding planes of the San Juan Formation limestones are for first time associated to the Yangtzeplacognathus crassus Zone (Middle Ordovician). Nautiloid cephalopod ...
Handbook of Pathogens and Diseases in Cephalopods
The aim of this open access book is to facilitate the identification and description of the different organs as well as pathogens and diseases affecting the most representative species of cephalopods focussed on Sepia ...
South American sea lions Otaria byronia as biological samplers of local cephalopod fauna in the Patagonian shelf marine ecosystem
(Cambridge University Press, 2019-06)
Cephalopods are important prey in the diet of top predators, such as marine mammals and seabirds. However, detailed information on their trophic relationships in the Patagonian marine ecosystem is scarce, including those ...
Global patterns of species richness in coastal cephalopods
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2019-08)
Within the context of global climate change and overfishing of fish stocks, there is some evidence that cephalopod populations are benefiting from this changing setting. These invertebrates show enhanced phenotypic flexibility ...
