The abbreviations used are standard, e.g., m for meters, mm for 

 millimeters, etc. Abbreviations used in reference to morphometric 

 dimensions are also standard in the teuthological literature; the most 

 common is ML for mantle length. Others are explained in the legends 

 or text. Definitions of these abbreviations are found in Voss (1963) 

 and Roper (1966) so they need not be repeated.
