@SnarkySmirk Lately I've entered a pen and ink/watercolor phase and I'm diggin it.

Ram's horn squid comin' in hot this #MolluskMonday! This cute little weirdo has a coiled internal shell (like a ram's horn) that is used to control buoyancy AND has a photophore between its fins.

A translator friend has informed that the Spanish term for manta ray is "pez manta" which means "blanket fish."
Now she refuses to refer to them as anything other than "blanket fish" and I love it.

The Dana octopus squid is an 8-armed squid whose tentacles are reduced or disappear by the time they reach adulthood. Also, those lidded photophores are the largest known light-producing organs found in any animal.

@shanniesci @AcademicChatter This thread is awesome! I'm starting my PhD in the fall but I started using art for SciComm about a year ago by making a new drawing every week for #MolluskMonday. I also tap dance here and there and occasionally make a crazy cake.

Octopus selene

The Bigfin squids are an elusive group of cephs that are rarely seen, especially as adults. It's easy to identify them when we do find them because their fins can be up to 90% of the mantle length!

Using genes found in different types of jellyfish eyes, biologists found that these eyes originated at least 8 times AND they built a better evolutionary tree that shows the relationships between jellyfish groups.
