Austrorossia mastigophora is a species of bobtail squid native to western, southern and eastern Africa, from Guinea and Somalia to the Cape of Good Hope. A doubtful record of this species exists from Chile. It lives at depths to approximately 640 m.[1]
On average, females are larger than males; they grow to 46 mm and 31 mm in mantle length, respectively.[1]
The type specimen was collected in the Indian Ocean near the east African coast (Шаблон:Coord) by the Valdivia Expedition and the species was described by the leader of that expedition, Carl Chun, the description being published in 1915.[2] It is deposited in the Zoological Collection of the Natural History Museum, Berlin.[3]
