A. fischeri possesses a periplasmic catalase that captures hydrogen peroxide before it can be used by the squid halide peroxidase, thus inhibiting the enzyme indirectly. [23] Once through these ciliated ducts, A. fischeri cells swim on towards the antechamber, a large epithelial -lined space, and colonize the narrow epithelial crypts.

The squid was spotted more than 3,600 feet underwater. The institute is currently facilitating an exploration of seamounts , or underwater mountains, in the southeast Pacific Ocean, according to ...
Bigfin squids are a group of rarely seen cephalopods with a distinctive morphology.They are placed in the genus Magnapinna and family Magnapinnidae. [2] Although the family was described only from larval, paralarval, and juvenile specimens, numerous video observations of much larger squid with similar morphology are assumed to be adult specimens of the same family.
