  • Defensive Behaviors of Deep-Sea Squids: Ink Release, Body Patterning, and Arm Autotomy
    Defensive Behaviors of Deep-sea Squids: Ink Release, Body Patterning, and Arm Autotomy by Stephanie Lynn Bush A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Integrative Biology in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in Charge: Professor Roy L. Caldwell, Chair Professor David R. Lindberg Professor George K. Roderick Dr. Bruce H. Robison Fall, 2009 Defensive Behaviors of Deep-sea Squids: Ink Release, Body Patterning, and Arm Autotomy © 2009 by Stephanie Lynn Bush ABSTRACT Defensive Behaviors of Deep-sea Squids: Ink Release, Body Patterning, and Arm Autotomy by Stephanie Lynn Bush Doctor of Philosophy in Integrative Biology University of California, Berkeley Professor Roy L. Caldwell, Chair The deep sea is the largest habitat on Earth and holds the majority of its’ animal biomass. Due to the limitations of observing, capturing and studying these diverse and numerous organisms, little is known about them. The majority of deep-sea species are known only from net-caught specimens, therefore behavioral ecology and functional morphology were assumed. The advent of human operated vehicles (HOVs) and remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) have allowed scientists to make one-of-a-kind observations and test hypotheses about deep-sea organismal biology. Cephalopods are large, soft-bodied molluscs whose defenses center on crypsis. Individuals can rapidly change coloration (for background matching, mimicry, and disruptive coloration), skin texture, body postures, locomotion, and release ink to avoid recognition as prey or escape when camouflage fails. Squids, octopuses, and cuttlefishes rely on these visual defenses in shallow-water environments, but deep-sea cephalopods were thought to perform only a limited number of these behaviors because of their extremely low light surroundings.

    Atti Soc. it. Sci. nat. Museo civ. Stor. nat. Milano, 135/1994 (II): 401-412, Giugno 1996 Gian Bruno Grippa (*) & Cedric d'Udekem d'Acoz (**) The genus Periclimenes Costa, 1844 in the Mediterranean Sea and the Northeastern Atlantic Ocean: review of the species and description of Periclimenes sagittifer aegylios subsp. nov. (Crustacea, Decapoda, Caridea, Pontoniinae) Abstract - The shrimps of the genus Periclimenes in the Northeastern Atlantic and the Mediterranean present a complex and little known systematic . In the present paper, several problems are solved, a new subspecies is described and a new identification key is proposed. Furthermore the systematic value of live colour patterns in the taxa examined is briefly di- scussed. Riassunto - II genere Periclimenes Costa, 1844 nel mar Mediterraneo e nell'Atlantico Nordorientale: revisione delle specie e descrizione di Periclimenes sagittifer aegylios subsp. nov. (Crustacea, Decapoda, Caridea, Pontoniinae). II genere Periclimenes presenta una sistematica complessa e poco conosciuta. Ricerche effettuate dagli autori hanno messo in luce la confusione dovuta a descrizioni carenti dei tipi effettuate talvolta su esemplari singoli e incompleti. Viene percio proposta una chiave siste- matica e viene descritta una nuova subspecie. Inoltre si accenna al valore sistematico delle caratteristiche cromatiche nei taxa esaminati. Key words: Decapoda, Periclimenes, Mediterranean sea. Systematic. Introduction In a recent faunistical note on the decapod crustaceans of the Toscan archipelago (Grippa, 1991), the first named author recorded some shrimps of the genus Periclimenes Costa, 1844. Using the well known monograph of Zariquiey Alvarez (1968), he identified shallow-water specimens found on the sea anemone Anemonia viridis (Forskal, 1775) as P. amethysteus (Risso, 1827) and some others, living deeper and associated with bryozoans as P.

    GRADES 3-5 REPRODUCIBLE MASTER SURVIVAL STRATEGIES In the film,Cephalopods: Aliens of the Deep, you see the tiny Flamboyant Cuttlefish walking along the PART 1 seafloor. You see the Bigfin Reef Squid showing off its ability to change colors several times a second. You even see the Mimic Octopus digging into the sand while copying the skin patterning of a sea snake. These are cephalopods. Their name comes from the Greek word “ceph,” meaning head, and “pod,” meaning foot. Their heads are attached to their tentacles, which they sometimes use like feet but mostly use as arms to capture their prey. ©Marta Sostres, Saint Thomas Productions ©Marta Sostres, Saint Thomas Productions ©Marta Sostres, nWave ©Saint Thomas Productions, Coconut Octopus Flamboyant Cuttlefish Bigfin Reef Squid ©Marta Sostres, Saint Thomas Productions ©Marta Sostres, ©Bertrand Loyer, Saint Thomas Productions ©Bertrand Loyer, nWave ©Saint Thomas Productions, Mimic Octopus Australian Giant Cuttlefish Black-eyed Squid Test yourself on what you learned about the cephalopods shown here by marking these statements with a T or an F for True or False. _____ 1.
