im a sophmor in high school i read about Teuthology on wikipedia but they dident have much on it and was woundering if there was such a thing and if some one could give me some info on it im realy interested in it.
 
Teuthology is the science of studying cephalopods (I think it includes Nautilus... ?) and you'll find quite a lot about it by browsing TONMO. :smile:
 
If you are considering the subject for college here are some of our academic members involved with cephs:
Steve O'Shea
Neogonodactylus
robyn
Jean

Hi Davec15

Yes, there are a lot of people online that can help you. However, I'd appreciate it if you would pay a little more attention to grammar, as a number of us are old school (and getting older, fast) and don't really appreciate 'text-style' postings.

:welcome:

sorry i have trubble spelling but ill try

I do to, but the only way to get better at it is to always try. I have my internet browser set up to check my spelling as I type and if I get stuck on a word I use google or ms word to get the right spelling.

Hi Dave,

There aren't huge numbers of books out there, but try for

Hanlon & Messenger, 1996. Cephalopod Behaviour. Cambridge University Press. I see its available on Amazon.com, but the price is nasty!

Norman, 2000. Cephalopods: A world guide . Conch Books. Also on Amazon.com and pricey

Any books you could get your hands on by Kir Nesis (although these are rare and expensive).

Ummmm Nixon & Young, 2003. The Brains and Lives of Cephalopods. Oxford University Press, Oxford.

Are just some I can think of. Try your local library under marine biology, natural history etc.

I know Cousteau wrote one called Squid and Octopus the soft intelligence.

there was nothing at the library but i ask my grandfather about it and he gave me a stack of marine biology books from when he went to college and my dad is giving me some of his
 
They are pretty specialised and a bit thin on the ground! BUT Nancy and Colin (our ceph care moderators) have a book coming out soon about looking after cephs in the home aquarium.............that one should be much easier to find, in fact you can pre order on Amazon (Amazon.com) and I know for a fact it has lots of interesting info in it!!!!!!!!

Also check out second hand bookshops, sometimes these books turn up there, I got my Cousteau one in a 2nd hand bookshop.

Goodluck

J
