#Jurassic #VampireSquid Had Ink Sac and Luminous Organs https://www.sci.news/paleontology/vampyrofugiens-atramentum-12059.html
A new #vampyromorph species from the Middle Jurassic La Voulte-sur-Rhône #Lagerstätte: Alison Rowe et al. https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/spp2.1511
"The combination of the ink sac and internal luminous organs is known from the recent times, although not from the coleoid (#octopuses, #squid and #cuttlefish) #fossil record... #Vampyrofugiens atramentum had a #pelagic lifestyle and occupied a predatory niche."
