Octopus in the family Octopodidae (Mollusca: Cephalopoda) has been generally recognized as a “catch-all” genus. The monophyly of octopus species in China’s coastal waters has not yet been studied. In this paper, we inferred the phylogeny of 11 octopus species (family Octopodidae) in China’s coastal waters using nucleotide sequences of two mitochondrial DNA genes: cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) and 16S rRNA. Sequence analysis of both genes revealed that the 11 species of Octopodidae fell into four distinct groups, which were genetically distant from one another and exhibited identical phylogenetic resolution. The phylogenies indicated strongly that the genus Octopus in China’s coastal waters is also not monophyletic, and it is therefore clear that the Octopodidae systematics in this area requires major revision. It is demonstrated that partial sequence information of both the mitochondrial genes 16S rRNA and COI could be used as diagnostic molecular markers in the identification and resolution of the taxonomic ambiguity of Octopodidae species.

The Occurrence of Cistopus Taiwanicus in Sri Lankan Waters
Proceedings of the National Aquatic Resources Research and Development Agency (NARA), Scientific Sessions 2016 The occurrence of Cistopus taiwanicus in Sri Lankan waters D.R. Herath*, D.N.A. Ranmadugala and A.A.D.G.U. Amarakoon Marine Biological Resources Division, National Aquatic Resources Research and Development Agency (NARA), Crow Island, Colombo 15, Sri Lanka Abstract Cephalopods include a diverse collection of more than 650 species of octopus, cuttlefish, squid and nautilus. Several of these species are commercially important in Sri Lanka. As morphological identification is sometimes difficult, molecular techniques were used to confirm the species of cuttlefish, squid and octopus species found in Sri Lankan waters. Cephalopod samples were collected from Chilaw, Negombo, Beruwela and Kalpitiya. The miotochondrial COI region was amplified and sequenced. The sequences were matched with universal databases to identify each species. The cuttlefish species Sepia aculeata, Sepiella inermis, Sepia pharaonis and Sepioteuthis lessoniana, the squid species,' Loligo singhalensis and Loligo (Uroteuthis) duvacelli were identified by this barcoding technique. Two species of octopus,Cistopus taiwanicusaad Octopus vulgaris were also identified. A significant finding in this study was that two separate octopus specimens collected from Negombo and Kalpitiya were identified as Cistopus taiwanicus. Four species of Cistopus, namely, C indicus, C. chinensis, C. taiwanicus and C. platinoidus have been recorded in the world. Out of these four species, only C. indicus has been reported from Sri Lanka. Therefore, the species list for Cephalopod species precent in Sri Lanka could be updated to include the species Cistopus taiwanicus. Further research is needed to confirm whether C. indicus and C. -
Along the Saudi Arabian Red Sea Coastline Thesis by Gordon Byron
Phylogenetic Diversity of Cephalopoda (Animalia:Mollusca) Along the Saudi Arabian Red Sea Coastline Thesis by Gordon Byron In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of Master of Science King Abdullah University of Science and Technology Thuwal, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia © December, 2016 Gordon Byron All rights reserved 2 EXAMINATION COMMITTEE PAGE The thesis of Gordon Byron is approved by the examination committee. Committee Chairperson: Michael Berumen Committee Co-Chair: Christian Voolstra Committee Member: Timothy Ravasi 3 ABSTRACT Phylogenetic Diversity of Cephalopoda (Animalia:Mollusca) Along the Saudi Red Sea Coastline Gordon Byron Although the Red Sea presents a unique environment with high temperature and salinity, it remains an area that is understudied. This lack of information is reflected in many areas, one which is biodiversity. Despite increasing work on biodiversity throughout the Red Sea and an increase in Cephalopoda studies, Cephalopoda in the Red Sea remain underrepresented, which is especially pronounced in molecular analyses. Members of the class Cephalopoda are considered to be major contributors to coral reef ecosystems, serving as part of the food chain and exhibiting population increases due to targeted teleost fisheries and global climate change. In order to assess the biodiversity of Cephalopoda in the Saudi Arabian Red Sea, 87 specimens were collected from 25 reef locations between 17°N and 28°N latitude, as well as from the largest fish market in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Taxonomic identification of specimens was determined using morphological comparisons with previously reported species in the Red Sea and the molecular barcoding region Cytochrome Oxidase I. 84 Red Sea sequences were compared with sequences from GenBank and analyzed using a complement of Neighbor- Joining, Maximum-Likelihood, and Bayesian inference trees. -

Recent Cephalopoda Primary Types
Ver. 2 March 2017 RECENT CEPHALOPOD PRIMARY TYPE SPECIMENS: A SEARCHING TOOL Compiled by Michael J. Sweeney Introduction. This document was first initiated for my personal use as a means to easily find data associated with the ever growing number of Recent cephalopod primary types. (Secondary types (paratypes, etc) are not included due to the large number of specimens involved.) With the excellent resources of the National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution and the help of many colleagues, it grew in size and became a resource to share with others. Along the way, several papers were published that addressed some of the problems that were impeding research in cephalopod taxonomy. A common theme in each paper was the need to locate and examine types when publishing taxonomic descriptions; see Voss (1977:575), Okutani (2005:46), Norman and Hochberg (2005b:147). These publications gave me the impetus to revive the project and make it readily available. I would like to thank the many individuals who assisted me with their time and knowledge, especially Clyde Roper, Mike Vecchione, Eric Hochberg and Mandy Reid. Purpose. This document should be used as an aid for finding the location of types, type names, data, and their publication citation. It is not to be used as an authority in itself or to be cited as such. The lists below will change over time as more research is published and ambiguous names are resolved. It is only a search aid and data from this document should be independently verified prior to publication. My hope is that this document will make research easier and faster for the user. -
