    • Born with bristles: New insights on the Kölliker’s organs of Octopus skin 

      Villanueva, Roger; Coll-Lladó, Montserrat; Bonnaud-Ponticelli, Laure; Carrasco, Sergio A.; Escolar, Oscar; Fernández-Álvarez, Fernando Ángel; Gleadall, Ian G.; Nabhitabhata, Jaruwat; Ortiz, Nicolás; Rosas, Carlos; Sánchez, Pilar; Voight, Janet R.; Swoger, Jim (Frontiers Media, 2021-05-10)
      The entire skin surface of octopus embryos, hatchlings and juveniles bears scattered tufts of tiny chitinous setae within small pockets, from which they can be everted and retracted. Known as Kölliker’s organs (KO), they ...

    • Global biodiversity of the genus Ommastrephes (Ommastrephidae: Cephalopoda): an allopatric cryptic species complex 

      Fernández-Álvarez, Fernando Ángel; Braid, Heather E.; Nigmatullin, Chingis M.; Bolstad, Kathrin S. R.; Haimovici, Manuel; Sánchez, Pilar; Sajikumar, Kurichithara K.; Ragesh, Nadakkal; Villanueva, Roger (Oxford University Press (OUP), 2020-03-20)
      Cryptic speciation among morphologically homogeneous species is a phenomenon increasingly reported in cosmopolitan marine invertebrates. This situation usually leads to the discovery of new species, each of which occupies ...

    • Morphological and molecular assessments of bobtail squids (Cephalopoda: Sepiolidae) reveal a hidden history of biodiversity 

      Fernández-Álvarez, Fernando Ángel; Sánchez, Pilar; Villanueva, Roger (Frontiers Media, 2021-01-20)
      Molecular species delimitation assists taxonomic decisions for challenging species, like cryptic species complexes. Bobtail squids (Family Sepiolidae Leach, 1817) are a very diverse group of benthic and nektonic small to ...
