Galiteuthis armata, the armed cranch squid, is a large species of glass squid. It reaches a mantle length of 61 cm.[3] The species is native to the Atlantic Ocean and has been recorded from Bermuda,[4] Canada, Namibia,[5] and Spain.[6] Armed cranch squids often appear to have bloated bodies, short arms, with thin but muscular mantles. They also contain large buoyancy chambers.[7]
