Loliolus Japonica, the Japanese squid, is a species of squid from the family Loliginidae. As the name suggests, it lives around Japan , but has also been found around Vietnam and China . [ 2 ] They are pelagic , living 1–30 m (3 ft 3 in – 98 ft 5 in) down in the ocean.
T. rhombus is known to be an intermittent spawner and is known to have multiple spawning in succession. [18] Females will produce secretions of gel-like substance from nidamental glands, similar to the Japanese flying squid, during spawning that will enter the water and swell. This swollen secretion will then be molded by the female into a ...
The Japanese flying squid, Japanese common squid or Pacific flying squid, [3] scientific name Todarodes pacificus, is a squid of the family Ommastrephidae.This animal lives in the northern Pacific Ocean, in the area surrounding Japan, along the entire coast of China up to Russia, then spreading across the Bering Strait east towards the southern coast of Alaska and Canada.
The firefly squid inhabits the waters off the coast of Japan. [13] [14] The depth at which these squids can be found varies (300–400 m or 1,000–1,300 ft during the day, and 20–60 m or 70–200 ft during the night) over the course of a day, [14] as they are one of the several species of squid that participates in diel vertical migration.

This squid is caught for food off the coast of Japan. [9] It lays its eggs on the underside of submerged objects. In order to increase catches, artificial substrates have been installed along the coast of Japan to provide more egg-laying sites. [3] This species is important in biological research. Its mitochondrial genome has been sequenced. [10]
