New Large Squid Species Discovered

A newfound species of large squid has been discovered from an expedition to mountains submerged in the Indian Ocean.

A specimen of the new species, about 30 inches (70 centimeters) long, belongs to the Chiroteuthid family, deep-sea squid known for their long, slender bodies and spectacular bioluminescent displays - impressive underwater light shows that the creatures put on to lure prey.
