All the shells are shown in the same position, at the top: anterior part, on the bottom: posterior part (a–c photographs, e, f optical images, d X-ray image) from publication: Comparison of embryonic and adult shells of Sepia officinalis (Cephalopoda, Mollusca) | Development and evolution of the shell in cephalopods is difficult to establish as there is few species with a calcified shell that could be fossilized (stable in geological time). Internal cuttlebone of sepiids is so particular that homologies are difficult to find. The | Shell, Cephalopoda and Mollusca | ResearchGate, the professional network for scientists.
