Gustavo Sanchez et al. describe three species of bobtail squid from the Ryukyu archipelago using morphological analysis, mitochondrial sequences, and transcriptome sequences. One of these species was a previously unknown bobtail squid from the genus Euprymna, the second is reassigned to the genus Euprymna, and the third species is closely related to another bobtail squid endemic from Australia and East Timor.
