Abstract
An essential aspect of the evolution of coleoid cephalopods is the diversification of egg-laying strategies. In decapodiforms (e.g., squid and cuttlefish), for example, the egg masses are structurally complex and mostly benthic. However, in the suborder Oegopsida, which includes oceanic squid, eggs are either pelagic or brooded in the female's arms. Therefore, in an essentially nektonic c…

Abstract
Decapodiform cephalopods (e.g., squid, cuttlefish, pygmy squid, bobtail squid) represent an interesting group for the study of the evolution of fertilization mechanisms in aquatic animals, due to their unique type of fertilization ("confined external fertilization"). In this clade, fertilization probably takes place during egg encapsulation, as the forming egg capsule travels through sper…
