Info

Linnaeus, 1758

The Common Cuttlefish or European Common Cuttlefish (Sepia officinalis) is one of the largest and best known cuttlefish species. It grows to 49 cm in mantle length and 4 kg in weight. Animals from subtropical seas are smaller and rarely exceed 30 cm

Synonyms:
Sepia filliouxi Lafont, 1869
Sepia fischeri Lafont, 1871
Sepia mediterranea Ninni, 1884
Sepia zebrina Risso, 1854
