About Sepia grahami A.Reid, 2001

Sepia grahami has pinkish-brown coloration and has prominent dorsal 'eyespots' on its mantle, which is a key feature that helps identify this species. Its cuttlebone is narrow, with a thickened, raised, yellowish-ochre inner core. Juvenile Sepia grahami have a white dorsal surface on their cuttlebone. The mantle length of this species is estimated to be approximately 10–15 centimetres (3.9–5.9 inches); this estimate comes from measurements of related species, because extensive precise measurements for Sepia grahami are not currently available. The type specimen of this species was collected off the coast of New South Wales, and is currently kept at the Australian Museum in Sydney.
