Might have been cuttlefish, not generic squid... I wasn't paying enough attention and it was just "on" if you know what I mean.

I'll look through the listings to see if I can spot it again.

I've seen a paper on reflective communication of fish, but thats all. I'd suggest doing a search at the school focussing on academic papers and case studies, then broadening ( I hate that word, the last thing needed in research papers in a broadening of the subject matter) your search to books once you are familiar with some authors involved etc. You can also send emails to various marine biologists asking for their advice, of course it always helps to send to people interested in this aspect of the field but any might be able to point you in the right direction.

I have no idea who it is by....I will try and pull out the box after dinner and let you know:)

Catherine, the description I found below looks like the show I almost saw... For added (almost) local colour, Dr. Mather is faculty at the University of Lethbridge. It was part of "The blue realm" series.

“TENTACLES” follows Dr. Jennifer Mather as she leads a
team of renowned scientists to the beautiful Caribbean
island of Bonaire. Their mission is to prove a controversial
theory: reef squid speak to each other with a complex lan-
guage they paint on their skin.

I say Killer Whales if that qualifies. Over the years I have seen several shows based strictly on their communication and interaction between themselves.

make sure you post a link here for your paper

There's also the communication aspects of the symbiotic relationship between the pistol shrimp and shrimp goby.....

Very true, but is there enough research for a 25 page paper?

I'm sure there is, if you use a 36 font.

Haha, don't forget to double space.

Hey you don't have to concentrate on a single example, why not use all of them? That would certainly fill up your pages. :biggrin:
