Biology:Acanthosepion
From HandWiki
Acanthosepion is a genus of cuttlefish, long thought to be a subgenus of the cuttlefish type genus, Sepia. A 2023 paper revived several genera of cuttlefish and elevated some subgenera of Sepia to full genus level based on molecular sequencing; this study recovered Acanthosepion as a distinct clade of cuttlefish. Genus Acanthosepion was determined to range from the coast of South Africa and Western Australia up to the Red Sea, Persian Gulf, and north to Sakhalin.[1] This classification scheme has been accepted by various databases, such as WoRMS,[2] and GBIF.[3]
The following species are accepted by WoRMS:[2]
- Acanthosepion aculeatum (A. d'Orbigny, 1835)
- Acanthosepion ellipticum (Hoyle, 1885)
- Acanthosepion esculentum (Hoyle, 1885)
- Acanthosepion lycidas (J. E. Gray, 1849)
- Acanthosepion pharaonis (Ehrenberg, 1831)
- Acanthosepion ramani (Neethiselvan, 2001)
- Acanthosepion recurvirostrum (Steenstrup, 1875)
- Acanthosepion smithi (Hoyle, 1885)
- Acanthosepion stelliferum (Khomenko & Khromov, 1984)
- Acanthosepion whitleyanum Iredale, 1926
