The marine life of Ohio included crinoids, snails, cephalopods, brachiopods, and fishes. Trilobites were also present, but their fossils are rare. [4] By the Permian period the sea had left completely. Local bodies of water were then lakes and rivers rather than saltwater. [3] Southeastern Ohio was a swamp-covered coastal plain. [4]

Extant cephalopods range in size from the 10 mm (0.3 in) Idiosepius thailandicus [3] to the 700 kilograms (1,500 lb) heavy Colossal squid, the largest extant invertebrate. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] Distribution
Interpretations by Engeser (1996–1998) suggests that nautiloids, and indeed cephalopods in general, should be split into two main clades: Palcephalopoda (including all the nautiloids except Orthocerida and Ascocerida) and Neocephalopoda (the rest of the cephalopods). Palcephalopoda is meant to correspond to groups which are closer to living ...

Nautiluses are much closer to the first cephalopods that appeared about 500 million years ago than the early modern cephalopods that appeared maybe 100 million years later (ammonoids and coleoids). They have a seemingly simple brain, not the large complex brains of octopus, cuttlefish and squid, and had long been assumed to lack intelligence ...
Ohio skies are filled this time of year with hundreds of species of birds flying north for the summer.. The height of the spring migration — known as The Biggest Week in American Birding — is ...
Cephalopods, as active marine predators, possess sensory organs specialized for use in aquatic conditions. [1] They have a camera-type eye which consists of an iris, a circular lens, vitreous cavity (eye gel), pigment cells, and photoreceptor cells that translate light from the light-sensitive retina into nerve signals which travel along the optic nerve to the brain.
