The eggs of the marine polychaete, Perinereis cultrifera, contain a lipovitellin with 16% lipid and five peptides (Table 7 Baert et al. 1984). Egg lipoproteins have been isolated from two mollusks (Table 2 scallop, Pecten maximus Table 7 cuttlefish. Sepia officinalis). The percent lipid of the lipoprotein from S. officinalis and P. maximus was 19 and 15%, respectively (Fuji 1960 Zagalsky et al. 1967). The molecular mass of S. officinalis was 2.5 X 10 daltons with phospholipid as the principal lipid.

Calcareous substance found under the skin of various species of cephalopoda, principally the cuttlefish Sepia officinalis L.) produce a rigid structure, the cuttlefish bone. Merrifield (1849) mentions that she found cuttlefish bone described as a pigment in historical sources, noting that it was among various substances frequently mixed with transparent vegetable colours to give them body .

SAPs have been and continue to be actively studied in sea urchins, but they have also been found in starfish (Noshigaki et al, 1996) and in the egg masses of the cuttlefish Sepia officinalis (Zatylny et al, 2002). Starfish and cuttlefish SAPs have been termed AsteroSAPs and SepSAPs, respectively. The presence of these peptides, however, is more general and reviews have been published on marine invertebrates and their attractins and other kinds of peptide pheromones (Susswein and Nagle, 2004) for crustaceans, see Rittschof and Cohen (2004). Research on these peptides and their synthetic analogs...
