genera. There are many species. They have a sack of inklike
fluid which they discharge from the siphon tube, when pursued
or alarmed, in order to confuse their enemies. Their shell is
a thin horny plate, within the flesh of the back, shaped very
much like a quill pen. In America they are called
squids.
