The book provides detailed instructions for collecting, preserving, transporting, examining, and identifying the lower "beaks" or mandibles of cephalopods belonging to almost all the known living genera. Many new illustrations, keys, descriptions and measurements make this a good reference work for zoologists who need to identify cephalopod remains from the stomachs of their predators. The illustrations include numerous line drawings and over two hundred stereo photographs.Table of ContentMethods; general recommendations; field instructions; laboratory examination of samples; identification of cephalopod beaks; key to the lower beaks of cephalopod subclasses and orders; identification of decapod lower beaks; octopod and vampyromorph lower beaks; nautiloidea.
