ACKNOWLEDGMENTS 



I am indebted to J. C. Marr and B. J. Roths- 

 child, past directors, and R. S. Shomura, present 

 director, Honolulu Laboratory of the National 

 Marine Fisheries Service (formerly the Biolog- 

 cal Laboratory of the Bureau of Commercial 

 Fisheries) at Honolulu, Hawaii, for extending 

 me the use of the facilities of the laboratory, li- 

 brary, and office space during my extended stay 

 in Honolulu. I thank Hazel S. Nishimura, Li- 

 brarian, for her help and patience in locating 

 cephalopod literature. I also appreciate the hos- 

 pitality and assistance of the scientific and cleri- 

 cal staff of the laboratory. I give special thanks to 

 E. C. Jones for his efforts to retrieve all the squid 

 material collected in net tows made on the var- 

 ious cruises of the vessels operated by the Hono- 

 lulu Laboratory between 1967 and 1970 and for 

 ensuring that the material reached me in good 

 condition. 



I extend my deepest gratitude to C. F. E. Roper 

 of the Mollusk Division of the U.S. National 

 Museum of Natural History, Washington, D.C., 

 and R. E. Young of the Department of Oceanog- 

 raphy, University of Hawaii, Honolulu, Hawaii, 

 both of whom unselfishly gave much attention 

 and expert advice on the systematics of squids 

 and on the preparation of this paper; and to G. L. 

 Voss of the Rosenstiel School of Marine and 

 Atmospheric Science, Miami, Fla., who initially 

 suggested the investigation of the Pacific cepha- 

 lopod material at the Honolulu Laboratory and 

 who reviewed the manuscript prior to publica- 

 tion—his constructive criticism is greatly appre- 

 ciated. R. E. Young donated the holotype of 

 Enoploteuthis h igginsi. 



Finally, I sincerely thank T. Okutani of the 

 National Science Museum (Natural History In- 

 stitute), Tokyo, Japan, and M. Okiyama, Univer- 

 sity of Tokyo, for examining E. chuni specimens 

 and offering their opinions and observations on 

 Japanese Enoploteuthis; and W. F. Ponder of the 

 Australian Museum, Sydney, Australia, for 

 allowing me to examine the holotype of E. galax- 

 ias during my visit to that museum.
