Histioteuthis heteropsis, known as the strawberry squid, is a species of small cock-eyed squid. [2] The scientific nomenclature of these squid stems from their set of differently sized eyes, one being small and blue and the other being large and yellow.
American paleontologist William N. Logan did not directly explain the etymology of Tusoteuthis when he named it in 1898. [2] The generic name may be formed from Latin tusus "crushed" (passive participle of Latin tundo "beat, crush") + Greek teuthis "squid", alluding to the typically fragmented condition of the fossil gladius. [3]
In warmer water at 24 Celsius, the squid added a weaker emission (forming a shoulder on the side of the main peak) at around 440 nanometres (blue), from the same group of photophores. Other groups remained unilluminated: other species, and perhaps A. veranyi from its other groups of photophores, can produce a third spectral component when needed.
Beak of Histioteuthis bonnellii. Histioteuthis is a genus of squid in the family Histioteuthidae.It goes by the common name cock-eyed squid, because in all species the right eye is normal-sized, round, blue and sunken; whereas the left eye is at least twice the diameter of the right eye, tubular, yellow-green, faces upward, and bulges out of the head.
The squid’s common name refers to the area where it lives. The Ryukyu Islands are a chain of 55 islands in the west Pacific Ocean and stretch about 700 miles from southwest Japan to northeast ...
Compared with other cuttlefish or squid, its taste is thinner and sweeter, and it is generally used to stir-fry, stir-fry or eat as sashimi. [8] U. chinesis when compared to other squid species like U. edulis seems to grow faster and have larger mantles. [12] This could attribute to people preferring U. chinesis over other squid species for eating.
