Loligo's skipper watches under a hot sky, the squid expelling jets of water as a deckhand scoops them from the boat for transport to the Marine Biological Laboratory, just a few hundred yards ( meters ) away.

In a sense this squid, Architeuthis kirki, suggested the cephalopods for sale in fish markets ( usually a species called Loligo opalescens ) rather than the monsters preyed upon by sperm whales and described by Jules Verne and Herman Melville.

That has Woods Hole scientists worried : As demand increases and fish populations decline, there's ever more pressure on the squid _ what the scientists call " Loligo pealei " and the rest of us call calamari.

All three species of " Loligo " are extensively exploited by commercial fisheries . " Loligo vulgaris " and others are noted for being attracted to night light; they are therefore fished using different light-attraction methods.

The first problem was solved by studying the giant axons found in the neurons of the squid ( " Loligo forbesii " and " Doryteuthis pealeii ", at the time classified as " Loligo pealeii " ).

The Oegopsina differ from the coastal Myopsina, characterised by the genus " Loligo ", which have corneal coverings over the eyes and tentacle pockets, but lack hooks, have no suckers on the buccal supports, and a single oviduct.

Adult sizes range from the dwarf " Australiteuthis " and " Pickfordiateuthis ", whose males mature at less than in mantle length ( ML ), to the large " Loligo forbesii ", which can exceed ML.

For example, the common cuttlefish and the opalescent inshore squid ( " Loligo opalescens " ) have yellow, red and brown, the European common squid ( " Alloteuthis subulata " ) has yellow and red and the common octopus has yellow, orange, red, brown and black.
