Product Description

Sepia Museum Specimen (Preserved Cuttlefish Specimen)

The Sepia Museum Specimen is an authentic zoological display showcasing Sepia—commonly known as the cuttlefish—a premier representative of the Phylum Mollusca, Class Cephalopoda, and Order Sepiida. Curated and preserved under strict marine laboratory standards, this wet specimen offers students, marine biology undergraduates, and researchers a tangible, permanent physical reference for advanced invertebrate evolution, bilateral symmetry, buoyancy control adaptations, and specialized predatory morphology. It serves as an essential teaching benchmark across university zoology departments, marine science institutes, and higher secondary biology practical classrooms throughout Bangladesh.

Studying cephalopod morphology, siphon mechanisms, lateral fin undulating locomotion, and the internal calcareous cuttlebone (sepion) can be challenging when relying solely on 2D textbook sketches or perishable fresh samples. This museum jar specimen resolves that barrier by presenting a real, intact cuttlefish suspended in a crystal-clear, leak-proof borosilicate glass container. The specimen clearly demonstrates the broad, dorsoventrally flattened muscular shield-like mantle, narrow undulating marginal fins running along the sides, large camera-like eyes with characteristic W-shaped pupils, eight sessile arms equipped with suckers, and two long retractile tentacles used for seizing prey. The archival-grade preservative fluid maintains structural tissue suppleness and prevents decomposition over decades of continuous institutional display.

Engineered for durability and safety, the display jar features a secure, leak-proof closure system that locks in the fluid. Each unit includes clear taxonomic labeling (Phylum: Mollusca, Class: Cephalopoda, Order: Sepiida) for instant identification during practical examinations. Victor Scientific Co. supplies high-grade biological specimens and museum display gear nationwide with secure packaging and reliable delivery across all 64 districts of Bangladesh.

✹ Key Features

Authentic Marine Cuttlefish Specimen

Sourced and prepared as a genuine Sepia sample representing benthic and nectobenthic cephalopods for accurate morphological study.

Distinct Shield Mantle & Undulating Fins

Clearly exhibits the broad flattened mantle bordered by narrow lateral fins utilized for precise hovering and maneuverability.

Complete Cephalopod Tentacular Apparatus

Showcases eight shorter oral arms lined with suckers and two elongated, club-ended retractile tentacles.

Professional Archival Wet Preservation

Treated with specialized fixatives and suspended in clear preservative fluid to prevent tissue decay and maintain soft-tissue volume.

Clear Borosilicate Display Jar

Housed in a thick-walled glass container that provides optical distortion-free viewing from all 360 degrees.

Leak-Proof Seal Technology

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1

What is the price of the Sepia Museum Specimen in Bangladesh?

A1

The price of a Sepia Museum Specimen in Bangladesh typically ranges between BDT 1,200 and BDT 2,800, depending on the specimen length and glass jar dimensions. Contact Victor Scientific Co. directly for exact institutional quotes and availability.

Q2

What is the difference between Sepia (cuttlefish) and Loligo (squid)?

A2

Sepia possesses a broader, flattened shield-like body with narrow lateral fins and an internal chalky calcareous cuttlebone used for buoyancy, whereas Loligo has an elongated, tubular torpedo-shaped body with triangular posterior fins and a thin, chitinous internal pen (gladius).

Q3

What preservative fluid is used inside the museum jar?

A3

The cuttlefish is stored in a safe, stabilized archival fluid solution (such as low-concentration formalin or alcohol-based preservative) designed to protect soft marine tissues and prevent evaporation.

Q4

Can the specimen be removed from the jar for closer study?

A4

For permanent preservation and safety, it is recommended to keep the jar sealed. The transparent glass provides complete visual access to exterior features without requiring physical removal.

Q5

Does Victor Scientific Co. deliver glass museum specimens safely across Bangladesh?

A5

Yes, Victor Scientific Co. packages all fluid-filled glassware in bubble wrap, cushioning, and heavy protective cartons to ensure safe delivery to all 64 districts in Bangladesh—including Chattogram, Rajshahi, Khulna, and Sylhet—within 24 to 48 hours.
