The striped pyjama squid is a small squid that lives on the seafloor in the Indo-Pacific waters of Australia. It hides by burying itself in the sand, with only the top of its head and its yellow eye showing. Its saliva contains a toxin, which makes it a squid to leave alone.1

Fatgs

1

The male uses a spoon-shaped arm to remove sperm from another male if he finds it in the female.1

2

It can change its colour to dark brown or purple when attacked or to blend in with its surroundings.1

3

Its white stripes reflect white light, while its dark stripes are tiny pigment sacs called chromatophores that it can flash.1

4

It buries itself in the sand during the day and keeps flicking sand over its body to stay hidden.1

5

Worm-like parasites called dicyemids live inside it and feed on its urine.1

6

Like many members of its order, the male usually dies after mating.1
