ReefLife issue dedicated to cephalopods

[ceph]

The most recent issue (Vol 1, number 4) of ReefLife (www.reeflifemagazine.com) is dedicated to Cephalopods! I am very impressed with the quality of this new publication.

Inside you will find five featured articles on cephalopods on the topics of: Pharaoh cuttlefish, Octopus chierchiae, The Lives of Cephalopods, Flamboyant cuttlefish, and an Eye for Octopus.

We might even know one of the cuttlefish authors

In the fourth issue of ReefLife we will examine one of the most fascinating groups of marine organisms — the cephalopods. Richard Ross will discuss one of the most spectacular members of this group, the aptly named flamboyant cuttlefish (Metasepia pfefferi), as well as share some of his research on the lesser Pacific striped octopus (Octopus chierchiae). Naturalist/photographer Mark Strickland will explore the mating behavior of the Pharaoh cuttlefish (Sepia pharaonis) and also share an amazing encounter he had with a muddy argonaut (Argonauta hians). We will also examine, in a colorful pictorial, some of the cephalopods the diver is likely to encounter in the tropical coastal waters of the western Pacific, as well as the cool waters of southern Australia.
