This genus is probably the most speciose in the Cephalopoda. Because of the great variability among species, the genus is best defined by the other two genera; that is, Sepia is the sepiid that doesn't have the major characters that define Metasepia and Sepiella.
Diagnosis
- without pore at posterior end of mantle.
- with cuttlebone length approximately the same as mantle length.
