The teuthofauna assemblages of the southern Tyrrhenian sea were studied utilising data derived from five International Medits bottom trawl surveys. A total of 25 cephalopod species were found between 18 and 652 m depth. The assemblages were analysed with Bray-Curtis similarity index. Four main groups were defined:inshore, shelf, slope and midslope. Alloteuthis media was the dominant species inshore, Illex coindetii on the shelf, Todaropsis eblanae on the slope, and Todarodes sagittatus for the last group.

Abstract
The teuthofauna assemblages of the southern Tyrrhenian sea were studied utilising data derived from five International Medits bottom trawl surveys. A total of 25 cephalopod species were found between 18 and 652 m depth. The assemblages were analysed with Bray-Curtis similarity index. Four main groups were defined:inshore, shelf, slope and midslope. Alloteuthis media was the dominant species inshore, Illex coindetii on the shelf, Todaropsis eblanae on the slope, and Todarodes sagittatus for the last group.File in questo prodotto:
