  Grimaldi Scaled Squid - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Grimaldi Scaled Squid is a squid named after the Grimaldi family, reigning house of Monaco.
Prince Albert I of Monaco was an amateur teuthologist who pioneered the study of deep sea squids by collecting the 'precious regurgitations' of Sperm Whales.
Grimaldi Scaled Squid was first collected from the stomach contents of a whale.

Squids are the large, diverse group of marine mollusks, popular as food in cuisines as widely separated as the Korean and the Italian.
Like all cephalopods, squids are distinguished by having a distinct head, bilateral symmetry and tentacles with suckers; squid, like cuttlefish, have eight arms and two tentacles arranged in pairs.
The majority of squid are no more than 60 cm in length, but the giant squid is reportedly up to 20 m in length, which made it the largest invertebrate in the world, and it has the largest eyes of all.

SQUIDs are used to measure extremely tiny magnetic fields; they are currently the most sensitive such devices (magnetometers) known, with noise levels as low as 3 fT/sqrt(Hz).
The use of SQUIDs in oil prospecting, earthquake prediction and geothermal energy surveying is becoming more widespread as superconductor technology develops; they are also used as precision movement sensors in a variety of scientific applications, such as the detection of gravity waves.
SQUIDs are also referenced in the film Strange Days, where they are used to record and play back human memories, which are exchanged on the fl market.

Grimaldi let a beam of sunlight enter a darkened room through a small circular aperture and observed that, when the beam passed through a second aperture onto a screen, the spot of light was slightly larger than the second aperture and had coloured fringes.
Grimaldi concluded that the light rays had diverged slightly, becoming bent outwards, or diffracted.
Grimaldi was born in Bologna and was professor of mathematics at the Jesuit College there from 1648.

 Unique hooks in the male scaled squid Lepidoteuthis grimaldii Joubin, 1895   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-29)
The male scaled squid Lepidoteuthis grimaldii Joubin, 1895, hereby reported for the first time, is equipped with a pair of grossly enlarged saber-like hooks.
Recently one such squid, a large male attributed to Lepidoteuthis grimaldii (sensu Clarke, 1960), 422 mm in mantle length (ML), was caught between 950−1100 m depth by a commercial trawler on the Cascade Rise (150º26’E 43º99’S) south of Tasmania, Australia.
Although hooks occur in many families of squid, their abrupt enlargement (the hook-bearing suckers being five times the diameter of any other sucker on the animal), the elongation of the hook into a saber-like structure, and their restriction solely to the dorso-lateral arms of males are characters/states unique to Lepidoteuthis.

While the exploits of Alain Robert, alias "Spiderman", an exponent of "Urban Free Climbing", who has scaled the 187m Dubai Marina and the 443m Sears Tower in Chicago have pushed extreme sports into the public eye, most media coverage leans towards the sensational, describing extreme sports enthusiasts as "thrill seekers" and "adrenalin junkies".
The media hype surrounding the deaths of BASE jumpers and the fictional representations of Surfing and Skydiving in films such as "Point Break" (1991), "Drop Zone" (1994) and "Terminal Velocity" (1994) do nothing to dispel the media myth that the extreme sports enthusiast is a "thrill junkie" with a "death wish".
