On 16th October 2012, kobi cuttle fish, Sepia
kobiensis were caught by trawl gears operated along
the Karaikal coast ( lat 100 49' 11.01" N; long: 790 43'
79.52"E) of south India at a depth of around
100-200 m . The specimens were identified as Sepia
kobiensis Hoyle, 1885 based on the identification
characters as described in Jereb and Roper 2005
(Fig. 1 and 2). This species has not been reported
earlier and therefore considered as a new record to
the inshore waters of Bay of Bengal along Karaikal
coast. It is a demersal cuttlefish inhabiting up to
160 m depth and has been found to occur in Mumbai
waters along the west coast of India.The occurrence
of the species in the fishery along Mumbai coast is
highly seasonal
