Info

Nototodarus gouldi (McCoy, 1888)

The squid is typically found at depths from 50–200 m off the coasts and shelves of Australia and New Zealand, although it can go as deep as 825m; juveniles are sometimes found intertidal.

Colour varies moderately and ranging from light pink or brown to brick red, with a dark dorsal stripe on its mantle.

It eats smaller fish, such as barracudas, as well as other squids,[2] and cannibalism has sometimes been observed.

Synonymised names:
Nototodarus sloanii gouldi (McCoy, 1888)
Ommastrephes gouldi McCoy, 1888 (original combination)
