I have a science thing and i need to know how small the smallest squid is and its length, also how much it weighs would be nice, i also need the weight of the giant squid, plz help me!
What is the name and length of the smallest squid?
heres part of the answer, all i could find:
a group of uniquely small squid (at adult size), that contains the smallest squid.
The smallest squid belong to the genus Idiosepius with the following six species:
Idiosepius biserialis
Idiosepius macrocheir
Idiosepius notoides
Idiosepius picteti
Idiosepius paradoxus
Idiosepius pygmaeus
Males in some species mature to lengths of 6 mm and females at 8 mm! That's about the width of your baby finger nail! These squid have a special organ on their backs that they use to attach themselves to seaweed. They are found in shallow water in the Indo-West Pacific.
