Many types of molluscs are eaten worldwide, either cooked or raw due to their rich nutritional value. Furthermore, they are used as pearl, cowry and accessory materials, for tools like household dishes, cooking pots and utensils such as a spoon, cutlery, scoops, spatulas, etc. Some of them are destructive and caused ecological damage, some serve as intermediate hosts for human parasites; some can cause damage to crops. Mollusc meat is known to be highly nutritious and salutary owing to its high content of essential amino acids, proteins, fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals. In addition, some of the bioactive compounds including antiviral, antimicrobial, antiprotozoal, antifungal, antihelminthic and anticancer products are producing by molluscs as medicines. The largest edible snail is African land snail Achatina achatina mostly consumed by African people. Molluscs were very prominent dishes during the Roman Empire due to their aphrodisiac effect.

    DIET OF FREE-RANGING AND STRANDED SPERM WHALES (Physeter macrocephalus) FROM THE GULF OF MEXICO NATIONAL MARINE FISHERIES SERVICE CONTRACT REPORT Submitted to: Dr. Keith D. Mullin National Marine Fisheries Service Southeast Fisheries Science Center PO. Drawer 1207 Pascagoula, MS 39568-1207 Submitted by: Dr. Nelio B. Barros Mote Marine Laboratory Center for Marine Mammal and Sea Turtle Research 1600 Ken Thompson Parkway Sarasota, FL 34236-1096 (941) 388-4441 x 443 (941) 388-4317 FAX May 2003 Mote Marine Laboratory Technical Report Number 895 ABSTRACT Sperm whales are common inhabitants of the deep waters of the Gulf of Mexico. To date, no information is available on the diet of sperm whales in the Gulf. This study sheds light into the feeding habits ofthese whales by examining data collected from free-ranging and stranded animals. Prey species included a minimum of 13 species within 10 families of cephalopods, the only prey type observed. The most important prey was Histioteuthis, a midwater squid important in the diet of sperm whales worldwide. Most species of cephalopods consumed by Gulf sperm whales are meso to bathypelagic in distribution, being found in surface to waters 2,500 deep. Some of these prey are also vertical migrators. The diet of Gulf sperm whales does not include species targeted by the commercial fisheries. INTRODUCTION Until fairly recently, little was known about the species of whales and dolphins (cetaceans) inhabiting the deep waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Most of the information available came from opportunistic sightings and occasional strandings. In the early 1990' s large-scale dedicated surveys were initiated to study the distribution and abundance of marine mammals in the deep Gulf.

  • Cuttlefish (Sepia Sp.) Ink Extract As Antibacterial Activity Against Aeromonas Hydrophila
    INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SCIENTIFIC & TECHNOLOGY RESEARCH VOLUME 8, ISSUE 11, NOVEMBER 2019 ISSN 2277-8616 Cuttlefish (Sepia Sp.) Ink Extract As Antibacterial Activity Against Aeromonas Hydrophila Faizal Zakaria, Mohamad Fadjar, Uun Yanuhar Abstract: Aeromonas hydrophila is a gram negative opportunist bacterium associated with aquatic animal disease. Cephalopod ink has shown potential antiretroviral activity. The ink extracts of cuttlefish showed antibacterial effect. This study aims to investigate the antibacterial activity of the methanolic extract of the ink of cuttlefish (Sepia sp.) against Aeromonas hydrophilla. The shadedried ink sample from approximately 30g ink sacs obtained from 15 animals were immersed separately in methanol (1:3 w/v) solvents for overnight. Dried extract was used for the experiments. Isolate of Aeromonas hydrophila was originated from Jepara Brackishwater Aquaculture Center. The average yield percentage of cuttlefish tintan extract obtained was 4.86%. The results of the MIC test in table 5. show that the highest average absorbance value was obtained at a concentration of 50 ppm which was equal to 1,716 nm and the lowest absorbance was obtained at a treatment dose of 300 ppm at 0.841 nm while the Mc Farland tube was 0.933 nm. The results of antibacterial test on table 2 showed antibacterial activity of cuttlefish ink extract at concentration negative control showed diameter zone of 5 ± 1.2 mm, at positive control showed diameter zone of 31 ± 1.2 mm, at 250 ppm result 19 ± 0.9 mm, at 300 ppm result 22 ± 1.4 mm, at 350 ppm result 31 ± 1.2 mm.

Centre for PG Studies (Autonomous), Lawspet Campus, Pondicherry University, Puducherry-605 008, India. *Corresponding Author: Visweswaran B Abstract: Many a report seemed to project at a noble notion of having identified some novel and bioactive compounds claimed to have been found from Sepiella inermis; but lagged to log their novelty scarcely defined due to certain technical blunders they seem to have coldly committed in such valuable pieces of aboriginal research works, reported to have sophistically been accomplished but unnoticed with considerable lack of significant finesse. They have dealt with finer biochemicals already been reported to have been available from S.inermis; yet, to one’s dismay, have failed to maintain certain conventional means meant for original research.

  • Reproductive Behavior of the Japanese Spineless Cuttlefish Sepiella Japonica
    VENUS 65 (3): 221-228, 2006 Reproductive Behavior of the Japanese Spineless Cuttlefish Sepiella japonica Toshifumi Wada1*, Takeshi Takegaki1, Tohru Mori2 and Yutaka Natsukari1 1Graduate School of Science and Technology, Nagasaki University, 1-14 Bunkyo-machi, Nagasaki 852-8521, Japan 2Marine World Uminonakamichi, 18-28 Saitozaki, Higashi-ku, Fukuoka 811-0321, Japan Abstract: The reproductive behavior of the Japanese spineless cuttlefish Sepiella japonica was observed in a tank. The males competed for females before egg-laying and then formed pairs with females. The male then initiated mating by pouncing on the female head, and maintained the male superior head-to-head position during the mating. Before ejaculation, the male moved his right (non-hectocotylized) arm IV under the ventral portion of the female buccal membrane, resulting in the dropping of parts of spermatangia placed there during previous matings. After the sperm removal behavior, the male held spermatophores ejected through his funnel with the base of hectocotylized left arm IV and transferred them to the female buccal area. The spermatophore transfer occurred only once during each mating. The female laid an egg capsule at average intervals of 1.5 min and produced from 36 to more than 408 egg capsules in succession during a single egg-laying bout. Our results also suggested one female produced nearly 200 fertilized eggs without additional mating, implying that the female have potential capacity to store and use active sperm properly. The male continued to guard the spawning female after mating (range=41.8-430.1 min), and repeated matings occurred at an average interval of 70.8 min during the mate guarding.

  • 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.

  • Observations on Age and Reproduction of the Oceanic Squid Ancistrocheirus Lesueurii (D’Orbigny, 1842) (Cephalopoda: Ancistrocheiridae) H.J.T
    Journal of Natural History, 2015 Vol. 49, Nos. 21–24, 1319–1325, http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/00222933.2013.840748 Observations on age and reproduction of the oceanic squid Ancistrocheirus lesueurii (d’Orbigny, 1842) (Cephalopoda: Ancistrocheiridae) H.J.T. Hovinga,b* and M.R. Lipinskic aMonterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute, Moss Landing, CA, USA; bGEOMAR-Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research Kiel, Kiel, Germany; cDepartment of Ichthyology and Fisheries Science, Rhodes University, Grahamstown, South Africa (Received 18 December 2012; accepted 19 August 2013; first published online 24 February 2014) Despite the importance of Ancistrocheirus lesueurii in the diet of a wide variety of oceanic predators, many aspects of its biology are unknown. We report new observations on the reproductive system of the species and provide age estimates of one normal and two intersexual males based on the number of increments in the statoliths. The age of the examined mature males was estimated to be more than 2 years, increasing the maximum age known for males of the species. Female A. lesueurii have specific modified areas for spermatangia reception in the nuchal region. The morphology of the right hectocotylized ventral arm and the relatively large spermatophore are also described. Keywords: Cephalopoda; Ancistrocheirus lesueurii; spermatophore; mating; hectocotylus; deep sea; statoliths; age Introduction The oceanic squid Ancistrocheirus lesueurii (d’Orbigny, 1842) is important in the deep sea foodweb, being heavily preyed upon by sharks and cetaceans (Clarke 1980, 1996; Smale and Cliff 1998). Females attain larger sizes and mature later than males, and growth rates in both sexes are among the lowest known for squid (Arkhipkin 1997).

Numbers of dusky sharks, Carcharhinus obscurus, in the Western North Atlantic have drastically declined over the past twenty years. Several fishery-dependent and fishery-independent studies have recorded the decline of this slow growing, late maturing, long-lived species. It is imperative for the survival of this species that we develop accurate demographic and biological parameter estimates to ensure proper management. Data sets from the Virginia Institute of Marine Science (VIMS) fishery-independent shark survey, Commercial Shark Fishery Observer Program (CSFOP) fishery-dependent shark survey, and previously published data were analyzed to construct
