In the News (Mon 6 Jul 09)

  
  Octopodiformes
The Octopodiformes consists of the Octopoda which contains over 200 species and the Vampyromorpha which contains a single species.
A variety of names have been proposed for this group (e.g., Octobrachia, Fiorini, 1981; Octopodiformes, Berthold and Engeser, 1987; Vampyromorphoidea, Engeser and Bandel, 1988; Vampyropoda, Boletzky, 1992).
Young, et al.(1999) concluded that Octopodiformes was the most appropriate.

They are the single species Ram's Horn Squid (order Spirulida) and the bobtail squids of order Sepiolida.
There is also one squid species grouped within the octopodiform ("eight legged") superclass: the Vampire Squid.
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.
