The significance of cephalopod beaks as a research tool: An update.

The use of cephalopod beaks in ecological and population dynamics studies has allowed major advances of our knowledge on the role of cephalopods in marine ecosystems in the last 60 years. Since the 1960's, with the pioneering research by Malcolm Clarke and colleagues, cephalopod beaks (also named jaws or mandibles) have been described to species level and their measurements have been shown to be related to cephalopod body size and mass, which permitted important information to be obtained on numerous biological and ecological aspects of cephalopods in marine ecosystems. In the last decade, a range of new techniques has been applied to cephalopod beaks, permitting new kinds of insight into cephalopod biology and ecology.

Effects of regional hypoxia and incubation temperature on growth, differentiation, heart mass, and oxygen consumption in embryos of the leopard gecko (Eublepharis macularius).

Oviparous reptile embryos must tolerate fluctuations in oxygen availability and incubation temperature during development. In this study, regional hypoxia was simulated by painting eggs of Eublepharis macularius with melted paraffin wax to decrease the available surface area for gas exchange by approximately 80%. Experimental and control eggs were incubated at either 28 or 34 °C and embryo mass, stage, heart mass, relative heart mass, and oxygen consumption (V̇O) were measured at 15 and 30 days of incubation.
