Squid are marine cephalopods of the order Teuthida, which comprises around 300 species. Like all other cephalopods, squid have a distinct head, bilateral symmetry, a mantle, and arms. Squid, like Cuttlefish, have eight arms arranged in pairs and two, usually longer, Tentacles.
This tag is for living squid. For squid as food, see Calamari, Ikayaki, or similar.
