Southern hemisphere, probably found during Capt. Cook’s travels. 
Gonatus (Oray, 1849) = Lestoteuthis (Verrill, 1880). Distinct from 
Enoploteuthis by four rows of suckers on all arms, the want of hooks on 
the ventral arms, the presence of longitudinal rows of small suckers and 
corresponding adhesive cushions on the tentacular arms, a distinct cup- 
like hinder end of the pen with phragmocouoid septa, but without 
rostrum, and by five rows of teeth in the radula. G.fahricii (Lichten- 
stein, Onychoteuthis) = kamtschatica (Middend.) ; 0. amcena (Moller) is its 
young : it is also figured by Sars, Moll. Arct. pi. xiii. figs. 4-11. It is found 
on the shores of Greenland, Iceland, Northern Norway, Kamtschatka, 
Japan, and even in the Mediterranean. Owenia (Prosch) also belongs 
partly to this genus, the author having confounded a true Cranchia, 
figs. 4-6, and young specimens of Gonatus, fig. 7, under the same name, 
C. megalops, and taken the subgenerical character of Owenia from the 
latter. The liver of Gonatus abounds in oil, and the animal is said to 
utter a piping or weeping sound. ' Steenstrup, Overs. Dan. Selsk. 1881,
