INTRODUCTION Available catch statistics from 1965 through 1971 indicate • that world-wide landings of squid totalled roughly 700,000 metric tons annually. An additional 100,000 metric tons of cuttlefish and about 160,000 metric tons of octopus were also landed annually. Apart from the well-established squid fishery in the Monterey area of California and the relatively minor inshore squid fishery off Newfoundland, the North American fishing industry has tended to ignore the possibility of further exploitation and utilization of this resource. It is obvious that poor market demands in past years have had a depressing efl'ect upon any possibility of expanding the North American squid fishery. Indeed, this poor demand for squid is reflected in prices paid to Cali- fornian fishermen in 1969-1970, namely, 2-4¢ per pound. Canned squid and frozen squid prices brought about 10¢ per pound. In the past year, however, a dramatic increase in u.s. squid prices has occurred. Prices paid by British Columbia fishing firms for frozen Californian squid in 1973 were about 23¢ per pound; the opening price in 1974 soared to about 43¢ per pound. Frozen imported squid currently retails for 79¢ per pound locally. If the steady increase in the price of imported squid should conti~ue, it immediately suggests the feasibility of harvesting and utilizing our own squid resources. Considerable studies on the biology of squid in the l':onterey a1·ea of California have been done, but little information is available regarding this particular fishery resource in other regions of the 2. Northeast Pacific. Certainly, no research (other than taxonomic studies) has been done on B.C. squid. Accordingly, if a potential squid fishery does exist in B.C. coastal waters, much more informa­ tion than that which exists now should be made available to inter­ ested parties. Accordingly, this report was prepared to summarize infor­ mation gathered thro~gh a survey of existing literature and published reports. In addition, much information was obtained through personal interviews with university staff members, Fisheries Service personnel, and with fishermen and fish plant managers having extensive 'experience in the B.C. fishing business. 3. II. BIOLOGICAL ASPECTS No attempt will be made here to include a detailed review of fundamental studies done on squids. Nonetheless, we believe that a brief description of squid biology in general, and Loligo opalescens in partic­ ular, would be appropriate in view of the potential economic importance of this species in local waters. Squid and cuttlefish belong to the Phylum Mollusca, Class Cephalopoda, Orders Teuthiodea (squid) and Sepioidea (cuttlefish). Both squid and cuttlefish possess ten arms. Eight of the ten arms are rather short ("sessile arms"). The two remaining arms ("tentacular anns") are often much longer than sessile arms in some species. MANTLE ~ PEN ~ TENTACULAR ARM Fig. 1. Loligo opalescens All squid species possess a chitinous skeleton or "pen" embedded in the mantle. If the pen is reinforced b;y a calcareous substance, it is called a "cuttlebone"; cuttlefish possess such calcareous pens. Although many species of squid are known to inhabit the coastal waters of B.C., most of these cannot be seriously considered at the present time to be of any economic importance due to scarcity, habitat or size. Nevertheless, a brief description of some taxonomic studies that have been done appears to be indicated. Mercer (1968) has listed 14 teuthoid species of squid and one sepioid species. More recently, Bernard (1970) has compiled the following list of 16 species of squid which are found in B.C. coastal waters: Rossia pacifica Loligo opalescens Histioteuthis dolfleini Cranchia scabra Taonius pavo Abraliopsis ~ Octopoteuthis sicula Todardes pacificus Gonatus anonychus (Berryteuthis) Gonatus fabricii Gonatus magister Gonatopsis borealis Onychoteuthis banksii Opychoteuthis borealijaponicus Moroteuthis robusta Vampyroteuthis infernalis Three species of squid (Meleagroteuthis hoylei, Chiroteuthis veranyi, Galiteuthis armata) not included above, but collected and identified by Pearcy (1965) off the Oregon coast, may be presumed to inhabit B.C. coastal waters as well. Dr W.G. Fields at the University of Victoria, B.C., is currently compiling a complete glossar,y of squid for the entire North­ eastern Pacific region. or those squid species mentioned, only the myopsid, Loligo op&lescens, the oegopsid gonatids, Gonatus sp. and Berrzt,euthis sp., can be seriously regarded as a potentially important fisher.y resource. Addi­ tionally, Voss (1973) suggests that Todardes pacificus (common Japanese squid) might be economically valuable. Loligo opalescens, the most promising squid species for commercial utilization, is the major species of squid caught off Cali­ fornia and is believed to be quite abundant off the coast of B.C. Accord­ ingl71 some aspects of its biology are described here. The information presented is largely extracted from the studies of Fields (1950, 1965) and McGowan (1954) on California squid. Presumably, much of this information is applicable to 1· opalescens on the B.C. coast. Mature 1· op&lescens is whitish and measures approximately 20-25 em (about 8-10 inches) including the tentacles. It is endemic, tends to inhabit the shallower waters of the continental shelf, and is distributed from the coast of California to the Queen Charlotte Islands, and even perhaps to Alaska. During the mating season (probably in the late summer locally), this species congregates to form large, dense schools near the sea bottom. Since the flesh of the squid is of good quality during the mating season, the harvesting of Loligo opalescens at this particular period makes good economic sense. On the other hand, most of the other species of squid are more difficult to harvest due to their pelagic nature. 6. According to Fields (1965) the sexes are visually distinguish­ able since the tentacles of the males are longer than those of the females, relative to the mantle length. Furthermore, males possess slightly larger heads and thicker arms than females. Like other species of squid, Loliso opalescens are very active predators, capable of very quick movements. They capture and teed on crustaceans, small fish and even other squid. Indeed, Fields found that 75% of spawning squid had been feeding on other squid. During non­ spawning periods, however, the squid's diet appears to consist of about 75% fish and 25% crustaceans. Loligo are, in turn, actively preyed upon by salmon, dogfish, tuna, halibut, ling cod, and other fish. Most marine maDIIlals, including whales, porpoises, dolphins, seals, and sea lions, also feed on squid. For example, 50 sperm whale stomachs checked by Pike (1950) indicated that squid remains were found in 7CJ1, of them. Sea birds and scavenging invertebrates, such as crabs, are active feeders of squid, especially after the squid have spawned and are in a spent condition. The spawning behavior of Loligo opalescens has been described by Fields (1950, 1965), McGowan (1954) and recently by Cousteau (1973). During the mating season, squid congregate in massive numbers on the spawning grounds (usually a sheltered bay less than 20 fathoms or about 40 meters deep with a sandy or muddy bottom). Fertilization is effected by the male using its special hectocotylized ventral left arm to grasp the sperm packet from its penis and transferring it to the mouth of the oviduct in the mantle cavity of the female. Several males may grasp the same feutale simultaneously. The mating and spawning acts generally occur at night. 7. The female lays up to )00 eggs encased in a jelly-like capsule which adheres to the sea bottom. Some ~ such capsules may be laid in a single night by a female s-quid. After spawning, the squid is believed to die naturally or fall prey to predators while in the spent condition. The natural life span of Loligo opalescens is not definitely known. Fields (1965) has indicated that both males and females complete their life cycle in about three years. 8. III. COMMERCIAL ASPECTS In contrast to the foregoing section which dealt brieflY with some biological aspects of squid, we present in this section all infor­ mation that we deemed of interest to those who may consider becoming involved in a squid fishing operation on the B.C. coast. A. Fishing methods Since squid fisheries have existed for centuries, maD7 fishing techniques have been used. These methods are briefly described recently by Voss (1973) and the following summar,y is taken largely from his report (1969). 1. Spearing and Hooking This is probably the oldest method used and is performed most successfully at night with the aid of torches, flares or electric lights.

  • A Review of Southern Ocean Squids Using Nets and Beaks
    Marine Biodiversity (2020) 50:98 https://doi.org/10.1007/s12526-020-01113-4 REVIEW A review of Southern Ocean squids using nets and beaks Yves Cherel1 Received: 31 May 2020 /Revised: 31 August 2020 /Accepted: 3 September 2020 # Senckenberg Gesellschaft für Naturforschung 2020 Abstract This review presents an innovative approach to investigate the teuthofauna from the Southern Ocean by combining two com- plementary data sets, the literature on cephalopod taxonomy and biogeography, together with predator dietary investigations. Sixty squids were recorded south of the Subtropical Front, including one circumpolar Antarctic (Psychroteuthis glacialis Thiele, 1920), 13 circumpolar Southern Ocean, 20 circumpolar subantarctic, eight regional subantarctic, and 12 occasional subantarctic species. A critical evaluation removed five species from the list, and one species has an unknown taxonomic status. The 42 Southern Ocean squids belong to three large taxonomic units, bathyteuthoids (n = 1 species), myopsids (n =1),andoegopsids (n = 40). A high level of endemism (21 species, 50%, all oegopsids) characterizes the Southern Ocean teuthofauna. Seventeen families of oegopsids are represented, with three dominating families, onychoteuthids (seven species, five endemics), ommastrephids (six species, three endemics), and cranchiids (five species, three endemics). Recent improvements in beak identification and taxonomy allowed making new correspondence between beak and species names, such as Galiteuthis suhmi (Hoyle 1886), Liguriella podophtalma Issel, 1908, and the recently described Taonius notalia Evans, in prep. Gonatus phoebetriae beaks were synonymized with those of Gonatopsis octopedatus Sasaki, 1920, thus increasing significantly the number of records and detailing the circumpolar distribution of this rarely caught Southern Ocean squid. The review extends considerably the number of species, including endemics, recorded from the Southern Ocean, but it also highlights that the corresponding species to two well-described beaks (Moroteuthopsis sp.

Genetic differentiation in Berryteuthis magister from the North Pacific. - ICES mar. Sei. Symp., 199: 459-467. Berryteuthis magister is a widespread quasibenthic commercial squid from the North Pacific. Intraspecific genetic differentiation was determined by allozyme electrophore­ tic analysis. Eighteen sample lots (2100 individuals) from geographically separated North Pacific regions were subjected to allozyme electrophoretic analysis using a total of 14 enzymes and unidentified ganglion protein spectra with polymorphic zones. Four loci with variant allele frequencies greater than 0.05 were found to be useful for population studies. No significant violations of the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium were found at any loci in the samples. There was no evidence of genetic differences between sexes. Analysis of genetic differentiation using Wright’s F-statistics, cluster analysis of genetic distances, and contingency chi-square analysis suggested that there are popu­ lation differences between squids from the three major geographical localities: the Sea of Japan, the Kurile-Komandor region, and the Gulf of Alaska. Genetic divergence between squid from the Kurile-Komandor part of the species range probably reflects subpopulation differentiation of local stocks from successive generations. O. N.

Lefkaditou1, P. Maiorano2 and Ch. Mytilineou1 1National Centre for Marine Research, Aghios Kosmas, Helliniko, 16604 Athens, Greece. E-mail: [email protected] 2Department of Zoology, University of Bari, via E.Orabona 4, 70125 Bari, Italy. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The intensive exploitation of the continental shelf has lead to a search of new fisheries resources in deeper waters. Four seasonal experimental surveys were carried out on the deep-waters of the Eastern Ionian Sea by Greek and Italian commercial trawlers from September 1999 to September 2000.Potential targets included deepwater species of fishes, shrimps and cephalopods. During the 4 cruises, a total of 26 species of cephalopods in 10 families were recorded, including 10 oegopsid squids, 3 myopsid squids, 5 octopods, 2 cuttlefishes and 6 sepiolids. Deep-water trawling resulted in the finding of some uncommon species such as Ancistroteuthis lichtensteini, Ctenopteryx sicula and Galiteuthis armata, which were recorded for the first time in the study area. Extensions of depth range were recorded for several species. The results of multivariate analyses, based on Bray-Curtis similarity indices, showed the presence of two clear associations: one consisting of hauls carried out at depths 300-550 m, where Sepietta oweniana, Todaropsis eblanae and Loligo forbesi are the most abundant species, and another with deeper hauls (up to 770 m depth) dominated by Neorossia caroli, Pteroctopus tetracirrhus and Todarodes sagittatus.

  • 2011 GOA Squids
    21. Gulf of Alaska squids Olav A. Ormseth NMFS Alaska Fisheries Science Center Executive Summary In 2010, the North Pacific Fishery Management Council passed amendment 87 to the GOA Fishery Management Plan, which separated the Other Species complex into its constituent species groups. Thus, GOA squids are now managed as an independent complex with its own harvest specifications. Because the GOA bottom trawl survey is the chief source of data for this assessment and is a biennial survey, full assessments are performed only in odd years. Summary of Changes Changes in the input data: 1. Total catch and retention data for GOA squids has been updated with complete 2010 and partial 2011 data. 2. Biomass estimates from the 2011 GOA bottom trawl survey have been added. 3. An appendix containing data regarding non-commercial catches of squid has been added to the report. Summary of Results Because reliable estimates of squid biomass and natural mortality rate do not exist, we recommend using a modified Tier 6 approach setting OFL equal to maximum historical catch and ABC equal to 0.75 * OFL using the years 1997 - 2007 as a baseline . last year this year Quantity/Status 2011 2012 2012 2013 M (natural mortality) n/a n/a n/a n/a Specified/recommended Tier 6 6 6 6 Biomass n/a n/a n/a n/a average historical catch 1997-2007 272 272 272 272 maximum historical catch 1997-2007 1,530 1,530 1,530 1,530 Recommended OFL (max. hist. catch; t) 1,530 1,530 1,530 1,530 Recommended ABC (0.75*OFL; t) 1,148 1,148 1,148 1,148 As determined last As determined this Status year for: year for: 2009 2010 2010 2011 Overfishing No n/a No n/a Overfished n/a n/a n/a n/a Approaching overfished n/a n/a n/a n/a (for Tier 6 stocks, data are not available to determine whether the stock is in an overfished condition) Introduction Description, scientific names, and general distribution Squids (order Teuthoidea) are cephalopod molluscs which are related to octopus.
