The dwarf cuttlefish (Sepia bandensis), also known as the stumpy-spined cuttlefish, is a species of cuttlefish native to the shallow coastal waters of the Central Indo-Pacific. [4] [5] The holotype of the species was collected from Banda Neira, Indonesia. [2] It is common in coral reef and sandy coast habitats, usually in association with sea cucumbers and sea stars. [5] Sepia baxteri and Sepia bartletti are possible synonyms.

Etymology

The genus name Sepia comes from the Latinized form of the Ancient Greek σηπία (sēpía) meaning "cuttlefish". The species name bandensis likely refers to the location the holotype was collected from, Banda, along with the suffix -ensis meaning "of" or "from".

Description

As is typical of cuttlefish, the body of S. bandensis consists of a mantle (generally around 4–7 cm at adult size), 8 visible arms, and 2 feeding tentacles (normally kept tucked inside the head). Their skin is covered in chromatophores and subcutaneous muscles known as papillae, both of which are under neural control. Chromatophores develop shortly before hatching and allow the cuttlefish to quickly and dramatically change its patterning. In a similar fashion, the papillae allow the cuttlefish to change its physical texture by raising and lowering portions of its skin. [4] [6] [7] These changes in appearance are used for camouflaging to its environment, as well as social signaling between conspecifics. [4] [8]

After reaching sexual maturity, dwarf cuttlefish become sexually dimorphic. Males tend to grow larger than females and often live slightly longer (roughly 6–9 months for females and 9–12 months for males)[ citation needed ]. Males and females also engage in sex-specific behaviors.

Dwarf cuttlefish swim by undulating the pair of translucent fins that line the edges of their mantle in conjunction with controlling their buoyancy using their cuttlebone. They are also capable of moving at high speeds by rapidly expelling water from their funnel. They are often observed "walking" along the sea floor—pulling themselves forward using their lowest pair of arms. [5]

Ecology

Life history

Female dwarf cuttlefish are reproductively active for a period 1–2 months, over which they can lay multiple clutches of eggs. Dwarf cuttlefish eggs are roughly 1 cm in diameter and covered in embryonic jelly mixed with ink for protection. Eggs are laid in clusters of around 5–40, resembling grapes, attached to corals or other firm surfaces and are left to develop without parental care. [4] [5]

After roughly four weeks, the eggs hatch into highly precocial cuttlefish which resemble a miniature version of their adult form. Within a few days, they are able to swim, camouflage, and hunt small prey. Dwarf cuttlefish reach sexual maturity at around 3–4 months after hatching, [4] [5] at which point males and females will mate with multiple partners. Males will compete for females using a characteristic aggressive display consisting of high-contrast longitudinal white bars on a black background. These displays often precede physical altercations between males, during which they will grapple each other with their arms and bite each other with their beaks. During mating, males will use their hectocotylus to place a bundle of spermatophores into the females' buccal area. Females can store sperm internally until they are ready to lay their eggs. [4]

Once the reproductive period has ended, dwarf cuttlefish begin to show signs of senescence. They continue to grow until they die at around 9 months of age. [4]

Feeding

Dwarf cuttlefish are generalist obligate carnivores, and hunt a variety of crustaceans and small fish. When a cuttlefish identifies a prey item, primarily by sight, they will often change patterns and "stalk" slowly towards it with their arms raised. The cuttlefish will then rapidly launch its feeding tentacles to grab the prey and pull it towards its oral cavity. The cuttlefish will hold onto its prey with its arms and inject it with venom to paralyze it. [9] Once the prey is sedated, the cuttlefish will bite off small pieces with its beak. Research is currently ongoing into the precise makeup and evolution of cuttlefish venoms, and how they compare to those found in other animals. [10] [11]

Social behavior

Dwarf cuttlefish are mostly solitary in the wild, though some social behaviors have been observed. Dwarf cuttlefish will often produce patterns specific to social interactions with conspecifics. While some of these patterns have been associated with specific behaviors, e.g. aggression, it is unclear exactly how the majority of social patterns are used. [4] [12] In captivity, females and younger males can often be housed together if provided with sufficient space.[ citation needed ]

Nervous system

Despite having diverged from the clade containing vertebrates over 500 million years ago, cuttlefish display a remarkable degree of intelligence. [13] Many aspects of the cephalopod nervous system are also organized in ways resembling those of vertebrates. [14]

However, the cephalopod brain also differs from vertebrate brains in several significant ways. Neurons in the cephalopod brain are generally unipolar and unmyelinated. Within brain lobes, neurons tend to be organized with cell bodies around the perimeter and neurites extending inwards to form a neuropil. None of the classic regions identified in vertebrate brains exist in cephalopods per se, though various analogs have been suggested. [14] Unlike in vertebrates where the vast majority of the neurons in the body are localized in the central brain, cephalopod neurons are far more distributed. Along with the central brain, a significant proportion of neurons in cephalopods are distributed in ganglia in their arms. [13] In cuttlefish specifically, arms have been shown to be able to learn certain tasks without the central brain's involvement. [15]

Central brain

The central brain of the dwarf cuttlefish consists of 32 distinct lobes arranged around the esophagus inside the head. The posterior portion of the brain is protected by a layer of cartilage. [16] For the most part, these lobes are roughly organized into 2 larger structures known as the supra- and subesophageal masses, located above and below the esophagus respectively, as well as the optic tract complex. [16] [17] The brain lobes and their associated organizational units are as follows: [16]

Vision

Similar to vertebrate eyes, cuttlefish eyes focus light onto a photosensitive retina through a pupil and a lens. Cuttlefish pupils are able to expand and contract to adjust to variable light conditions; when contracted the pupil forms a unique wavy-shaped opening (often described as a "W"). [18] [19] In contrast to humans, where light is focused by adjusting the shape of the lens, cuttlefish lenses have a fixed shape and are focused by moving them relative to the retinae. [18] Information from photoreceptors is sent to the ipsilateral optic lobe for processing through numerous nerve tracts. The optic lobes of a dwarf cuttlefish comprise 75% of its brain by volume. [16] A large projection from the optic lobes is to the lateral basal lobes. It is suggested that this pathway is involved in converting visual stimuli to skin patterns via the chromatophore lobes (which go on the innervate the chromatophore muscles across the skin). [12] [16]

Only a single type of photoreceptor has been found in cuttlefish retinae, suggesting that cuttlefish may be colorblind. [12] [20] [21] This finding makes it unclear how exactly cuttlefish are able to camouflage so well to different colored backgrounds. One proposed mechanism is chromatic aberration, where their W-shaped pupils scatter different colors of light onto different sections of the retina. [12] [21] Other proposed mechanisms include RNA editing [12] or using information from polarized light—which cuttlefish are able to detect. In opposition to this, some studies suggest that cuttlefish may indeed be truly colorblind, and are only able to distinguish colors by contrast. [20] At present it remains uncertain which of these hypotheses, if any, are accurate. [12] [20]

Camouflage

While not as flexible as some other cephalopods, the dwarf cuttlefish is capable of generating an impressive array of different patterns. [7] In contrast to many other color changing animals, cephalopod chromatophores are neurally controlled, allowing them to change patterns in less than a second. [6] Cephalopod chromatophores consist of a pigment-filled cell surrounded by a ring of muscles. Upon receiving input from the brain, the muscles surrounding the chromatophore can contract, expanding the cell and making the color visible in that section of skin. When the muscles relax, the cell shrinks back down due to elastic tension, making the color invisible. [12] Dwarf cuttlefish generally tend to match their background, but have various other patterns that seem to be displayed primarily during social interactions. [7] [12] Dwarf cuttlefish are capable of displaying 2 different patterns simultaneously—one on each lateral half of the body—which suggests that each of the 2 chromatophore lobes might be able to independently control each half of the body. [12]

While cuttlefish blend in remarkably well to their environments, they do not perfectly duplicate their visual environment—as one might expect if they employed a method similar to 1:1 pixel mapping used in digital displays. [12] Instead, it is suggested that the cuttlefish optic pathway might compute certain texture statistics of the visual environment, and uses those statistics to generate a novel pattern that nonetheless blends in to its environment. [12] [22] [23]

Chemoreception

Chemoreception varies across cuttlefish groups, though dwarf cuttlefish are likely able to sense chemical cues through receptors in their suckers. [24] [25] [26]

Somatosensation

Cephalopods use tactile information, especially from their arms, to explore their environment and coordinate prey capture. [13]

Learning and memory

Dwarf cuttlefish have been shown to be able to learn complex behaviors and have episodic-like memory. [13] [27] [28] Many of these behaviors, especially those involving visual and pain cues, have been associated with the vertical lobe. [29] [30] [31] The vertical lobe consists of a sparsely connected encoder-decoder network often referred to as a "cerebellum-like structure" due to its resemblance to the canonical cerebellar circuit. [32] These types of structures, which also include the mushroom body in insects and the trisynaptic circuit in mammalian hippocampus, have been shown to be useful in pattern separation—a key component of learning to associate complex stimuli with the appropriate actions. [33] [34] Although octopuses and cuttlefish share this same structure, the sites of learning differ between the two taxa. [35] It is yet unclear what implications this difference might have.

As a model organism

Due to their behavioral repertoire, short generation time, and relative ease of handling in a laboratory setting, the dwarf cuttlefish is gaining popularity as a cephalopod model organism. [4] Work is currently ongoing to create a transgenic line in order to more easily track neural activity in live animals. [36]

An octopus is a soft-bodied, eight-limbed mollusc of the order Octopoda. The order consists of some 300 species and is grouped within the class Cephalopoda with squids, cuttlefish, and nautiloids. Like other cephalopods, an octopus is bilaterally symmetric with two eyes and a beaked mouth at the centre point of the eight limbs. The soft body can radically alter its shape, enabling octopuses to squeeze through small gaps. They trail their eight appendages behind them as they swim. The siphon is used both for respiration and for locomotion, by expelling a jet of water. Octopuses have a complex nervous system and excellent sight, and are among the most intelligent and behaviourally diverse of all invertebrates.

In vertebrates, a neuroblast or primitive nerve cell is a postmitotic cell that does not divide further, and which will develop into a neuron after a migration phase. In invertebrates such as Drosophila, neuroblasts are neural progenitor cells which divide asymmetrically to produce a neuroblast, and a daughter cell of varying potency depending on the type of neuroblast. Vertebrate neuroblasts differentiate from radial glial cells and are committed to becoming neurons. Neural stem cells, which only divide symmetrically to produce more neural stem cells, transition gradually into radial glial cells. Radial glial cells, also called radial glial progenitor cells, divide asymmetrically to produce a neuroblast and another radial glial cell that will re-enter the cell cycle.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Cephalopod eye</span> Visual sensory organs of cephalopod molluscs

Cephalopods, as active marine predators, possess sensory organs specialized for use in aquatic conditions. They have a camera-type eye which consists of an iris, a circular lens, vitreous cavity, pigment cells, and photoreceptor cells that translate light from the light-sensitive retina into nerve signals which travel along the optic nerve to the brain. For the past 140 years, the camera-type cephalopod eye has been compared with the vertebrate eye as an example of convergent evolution, where both types of organisms have independently evolved the camera-eye trait and both share similar functionality. Contention exists on whether this is truly convergent evolution or parallel evolution. Unlike the vertebrate camera eye, the cephalopods' form as invaginations of the body surface, and consequently the cornea lies over the top of the eye as opposed to being a structural part of the eye. Unlike the vertebrate eye, a cephalopod eye is focused through movement, much like the lens of a camera or telescope, rather than changing shape as the lens in the human eye does. The eye is approximately spherical, as is the lens, which is fully internal.

Pain in cephalopods is a contentious issue. Pain is a complex mental state, with a distinct perceptual quality but also associated with suffering, which is an emotional state. Because of this complexity, the presence of pain in non-human animals, or another human for that matter, cannot be determined unambiguously using observational methods, but the conclusion that animals experience pain is often inferred on the basis of likely presence of phenomenal consciousness which is deduced from comparative brain physiology as well as physical and behavioural reactions.
