Halldis Ringvold

One possibility is buying squid from Peru. I've heard of one Company which sells these Creatures, and that is Oceanic International & Oceanic Seafood where Mr. Vegas is the general manager. Please use e-mail: [email protected]

Kind regards, Halldis Ringvold

Peter L. Croot

Hi Florian,

following on from Halldis's email you could also try IMARPE in Peru (National Fisheries Institute www.imarpe.pe).

Some of the researchers there work on this species- see the following paper

http://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0085919

Good luck with this.

Kind regards

Peter

Florian Hischen

Dear Halldis, Dear Peter,

thank you very much for your answers! I`ll try both suggested ways and hope for a positive response.

Also the paper was very informative!

Thanks again, kind regards

Florian
