FamilyCEPHALOPODA
NameOnychoteuthis banksii - SUPERB RARE CREATURE
Size400 mm
LocalityMurcia, Spain.
NoteSpectacular, very rare and extremely interesting deep sea creature. Very few found in many years. This species has got needle sharp hooks instead of suckers on the tentacles. Very difficoult to obtain intact as those tentacles get hooked everywhere and end up getting ripped off in most cases, exceptional quality specimen.. This was a very lucky find after the COVID-19 quarantine. Trawled by fishermen at -500 m. deep, mud bottoms, Murcia, Spain. 2020. Measures 400 mm with extended tentacles. Fixed and preserved in alcohol. I now use a new and better method for sending this kind of items that allows saving space and weight in the parcels.
