Being completely digested faster, fish are likely to be under-represented in the samples, but most identified were fisheries targets or by-catch.
Prevalent cephalopods eaten were Histioteuthidae, Onychoteuthidae, Cranchiidae and, at Taia-roa Head, Octopodidae.
Although Histioteuthis atlantica was generally the most commonly taken species, Moroteuthopsis ingens adults contributed most biomass and this indicates that most feeding was possibly on post-spawning cephalopods.

Two immature specimens of a species either belonging to a genus new to science (Mastigoteuthidae) or the first known non-larval specimens of the enigmatic Magnapinna (Magnapinnidae) are also represented in these collections.
The collections also include a number of presently unidentified cranchiid squid (Cranchiidae) apparently new to the New Zealand EEZ, and several fully mature and mated male and female Histioteuthis (Histioteuthidae) species, with bizarre sexually dimorphic characters being discerned for the first time.
