| dc.description.abstract | The squid Hyaloteuthis pelagica (Bosc, 1802) and the octopus, Ocythoe tuberculate Rafinesque, 1814 have been recorded from Ascension Island for the first time. Both species were found in yellowfin tuna stomachs caught from inshore coastal waters (within 5 km). The specimens were in good condition with distinguishing features still apparent, signifying very recent ingestion. Morphological features were examined, photographs taken and specimens stored for use as part of an on-going study investigating dietary habits of yellowfin tuna. | en |
