This document summarizes a study that developed habitat suitability models for four cephalopod species (Todaropsis eblanae, Illex coindetii, Eledone moschata, and Eledone cirrhosa) in the Strait of Sicily using data on species densities and environmental variables collected from 1998-2011. Generalized additive models were used to relate species presence/absence and abundance to depth, slope, rugosity, salinity, temperature, chlorophyll-a, and light levels. The models showed different habitat preferences between species that relate to environmental conditions. Predictive maps highlighted key habitat areas that can inform conservation efforts in the region. Further analysis of long-term trends is planned.
