Another new creature to admire. Especially interesting is its visual adaptation.

Amie! In my personal library I have a book: Octopus, Squid & Cuttlefish: a Visual, Scientific Guide to the Ocean's Most Advanced invertebrates. The Strawberry Squid, aka Jewel Squid, Stigmatoteuthis arcturi, family Histioleuthidae, rates a full page color photo with accompanying text. The book is small coffee table size and is a treasure trove of all things cephalapodian! I got my copy from Amazon!
