While we are tracking striped dolphin movements we sometimes find remains of deepwater cephalopods at the surface. We routinely collect, photograph and sample them. Most of the time, it is the long-armed squid Chiroteuthis veranyi or the umbrella squid Histioteuthis bonnellii. The species shown here is still unidentified.
