Sepietta petersi, also known as the Mysterious Bobtail, is a species of bobtail squid native to the Mediterranean Sea. A doubtful record of S. petersi also exists from the Atlantic Ocean off Morocco.[1]
The type specimen was collected in the Adriatic Sea and is deposited at the Zoologiska Museet in Uppsala, Sweden.[2]
S. petersi has been described as a doubtful species and was considered a senior synonym of Sepietta obscura by Kir Nesis.[3] A redescription of S. petersi and S. obscura is needed to determine the status of these two taxa.[1]
