dc.description.abstract | The giant Australian cuttlefish is found on rocky reefs in the temperate waters of South Australia between Southern Queensland and North Western Australia (Norman et al. 1999). Sepia apama are known as the 'chameleon of the reef for their extraordinary camouflage ability. The cuttlefish are a favourite site for divers as they come out of hiding to investigate bright coloured SCUBA clothing and equipment. Although they are spectacular animals, little is known of their biology, behaviour and reproduction. | |
