Laetmoteuthis lugubris [Laetmoteuthis lugubris]

Description

Often encountered in deeper, dimly lit waters, this squid can look like a small, dark silhouette drifting through the blue-green. Divers may notice its subtle, slow movements and a ghostly presence as it uses the surrounding low light to stay hard to spot.
