Description:

The collection of fishes and cephalopods at the National Marine Mammal Laboratory (NMML) of the Alaska Fisheries Science Center (AFSC) was started in the late 1940s by Victor B. Scheffer, Ford Wilke, and Karl W. Kenyon. The cephalopod collection is used primarily as an aid in the identification of cephalopod remains found in the stomachs, scats, and spewings of marine mammals. As such, the parts of cephalopods which persist after the soft parts are gone are prominent in the collection (i.e., beaks, gladii, and statoliths). See Fiscus (1991) for additional information on collection, preparation, and storage of reference materials. The size of the cephalopod collection increased dramatically in the late 1950s and 1960s with the advent of large-scale NMML studies of the pelagic life of northern fur seals, Callorhinus ursinus. Field parties continue to collect and bring material back for the laboratory reference collection.
