Book excerpt: Excerpt from Descriptions of Some New and Rare Cephalopoda The terminal fins, which appear to have been lacerated in Granch'e specimen, were entire in ours; they are of a regularly rounded form, approximated on the dorsal aspect, and united at their bases, the united part extending about a line beyond the end of the mantle they are not supported by cartilages, as in Loligo, but appear to be mere redu plications of the integument. The head is principally composed of the large lateral prominent eyes; the circum ference of the cornea is marked with a circle of closely approximated large dark Spots.
