1. Interannual variability of the populations structure FEMALES

variability in the population structure of jumbo squid ML (cm) 40
within the Gulf of California, mainly at level of the 30
sizes structure, which is reflected in the size of first 20
10 maturity. The changes in the abundance and 1996 1997 1998 1999 2003 2004 population structure of jumbo squid seem to be YEAR MALES related not only to the occurrence of events El Niño but also to the intensity or magnitude of such. 80 Figure show interannual variability of the mantle 70 dorsal length (MDL) of jumbo squid in Santa 60 50 ML (cm) ML Rosalía, BCS, Mexico.

2. Presence of paralarvae
During 2003 and 2004 were made in Santa Rosalia BCS monthly, nocturnal and superficial trawls with a conical simple net (60 cm of diameter and 505 µ). Organisms corresponding to the Rhynchoteuthion paralarvae characteristic of the Family Ommastrephidae were collected, which would indicate that the area is also used to carry out the spawning of this specie.

Presence of juveniles in the Gulf of California & West Coast
In research cruises inside and outside the Gulf of California, juveniles organisms with MDL between 1,81 - 8,58 cm were collected with dip-net, which suggests an ample distribution of the spawning & nursery grounds. These organisms are preserved in alcohol for future genetic analyses Ecology

Feeding during the day
¨…..During a research cruise on board of BIP XII of the CIBNOR at March, 2005 were observed jumbo squids feeding during the day and surface at 23° 26.84´ LN and 110° 39.84´ LW (12:35 p.m.). The great abundance of red crab (Pleuroncodes planipes) in the surface was evident and the squids swam throughout of them. When they were feeding elevated its arms and tentacles outside the water. Nine organisms were collected, eight were females in stages III, IV & V of maturity and one male in advanced stage of maturity V. The average of MDL was of 73,9 (♀) and 63,0 (♂) cm. Figure show squid feeding red crab in surface during the day and squid with red crab between arms.….¨ Ecology

YES Remarks
9 Jumbo squid is one of the most important fishery in Mexico
9 Recently is more frequently in the California Current
9 This specie is a voracious and active predator
9 It has an important paper in the trophic structure of the pelagic ecosystem
9 ENSO affect the distribution of Jumbo Squid in northwest Mexico
9 Already cross the border!
The next questions are:
How many years it will remain here?
Exist parallelism between south & north hemisphere spreading squids?
We need study the habitat & long term climate fluctuations NEWS!!
