Stauroteuthis gilchristi is a species in the taxonomic classification of the squid, a class of animals belonging to the Mollusca strain. The squid only occurs in salt water and is able to change color. He moves forward by pumping water into his cloak and pushing it out again through the siphon. The squid is a carnivore and its food consists mainly of fish, crabs, lobsters and molluscs that they catch with the suction cups on their grips.
The squid comes from the genus Stauroteuthis and belongs to the Cirroteuthidae family. Stauroteuthis gilchristi was described by Robson in 1924.
