Bioluminescence is the production of visible light by an organism. This phenomenon is
particularly widespread in marine animals, especially in the deep sea. While the …

This study provides a comprehensive molecular phylogenetic analysis of Uroteuthis squid
from the Indo-Pacific region. The main aim was to increase sample coverage from northern …

Australian waters contain the highest diversity of cephalopods (squid, cuttlefish and octopus)
found anywhere in the world. They are highly significant ecologically, both as top-level …

Abstract The Southern Hemisphere long-finned pilot whale (Globicephala melas edwardii) is
a top predator in the New Zealand pelagic food web, feeding predominantly on arrow …

The oegopsid squid family Onychoteuthidae was recently revised based on morphology, but
sufficient material for a complementary molecular analysis has not been available until now …

In order to establish the Kermadec–Rangitāhua Ocean Sanctuary, which will protect a large,
unique, near-pristine section of New Zealand's marine environment, an improved …

Deep-sea squids are presumably vital components of largely undescribed marine
ecosystems, yet limited access to specimens has hampered efforts to detail their ecological …

Abstract In the Southern Ocean, myctophids (family Myctophidae) are speciose, dominate
the mesopelagic fish biomass, and are important in the diets of many fishes, squids …

Identification of the two sympatric species, Alloteuthis media and Alloteuthis subulata, has
long relied on a set of identifying morphometric parameters and descriptive guidelines. To …

Many descriptions of paralarval and juvenile cephalopods are poor. By using DNA
barcoding, a global bioidentification system for animals, along with morphological …
